Eeewww! Wolf Spider with Babies on her Back

Nature is endlessly fascinating.

And she has served up an amazing creature

just in time for Halloween, too!

Take a look at this Wolf Spider!

Wolf spiders are unique because

they carry their egg sacs and their 

baby spiderlings on their back.

And due to the comments on this post,
I just need to tell you:
this is a REAL spider
~not a craft!

Oh yes... let's look at a closeup of that!:

Here's a full shot of momma Wolf Spider:

and now, take a look at all those babies 

wriggling and crawling

all over her back!

Eeewwww!!

But also: wow!!!

Trick or treat!
