Seeing the other spider posts, I found these guys last night in my yard (Limburg).

3. U should post this somewhere without giving any context and watch how many people say “Australia”

4. Fucking hell mate i hope these abominations arent in the city

5. Every insect post I’m just wondering if Peter Berx is around

6. Angel: ok boss, next up: the spider …Howmany legs you want on this one? – God: ‘Yes.’

7. Not an expert here.
   These seem like orb weavers given by the cross markings on the abdomen.

   Also if the tarantula pairings I’ve seen are anything to go by, these two are making babies.

   EDIT: These seem like at least somewhat a native species. Not everything with more than 4 legs is automatically a foreign invasive species.

   Also, creepy crawlies wil always look creepier under macro shots.
   They be creepy crawlies after all.

8. Tegenwoordig kunnen we ook niet rustig vlaai eten

9. It seems I have to move the fuck out of Limburg now

10. No need to worry, the napalm is on it’s way.

11. Someone has to steer this sub away from daily spider posts, please 😀

12. I’m picturing this with a voice over from David Attenborough: ‘on this fine spring night in the deep suburbs of Limburg, Belgium we are witnessing 2 spiders doing a mating ritual. This is the first time ever that scientists were able to capture this on camera. What a marvellous dance it is. Afterwards the female will eat her mating partner and vomit him out to feed her babies. Ah the wonders of nature.’

13. The legs 🤢

14. They are mating.
