Alright, I know it's not long since the last weird wildlife picture, but this one is truly scary. All your phobias rolled into one. And only ten feet away from the swimming pool.Update: Thanks to the magic of the internet, I have identified this beast as a female - i.e. big - Argiope bruennichi. All the web :-) pages about it seem to be in French, so I guess it is a local resident.

.. it's local all right. Lots of these cuddly characters were spinning their silky spirals in the raspberry plants at Troupiac. Enough to scare off any raspberry pickers, though I braved 'em long enough to gather over a kilo of fruit - hope you liked the raspberry and apple crumble!
