So I came home from the grocery store...

...and started washing the grapes under the sink. This crawled out of the grapes.

Got you beat, the other night before going to bed what do I see by the door in the shadow? A pretty meaty looking spider, so I get a flashlight to get a better look at it and to make sure it is indeed a spider. Well holy shit, it freaked me out, it was not moving at all but it looked like it was and after a second I realized what I was looking at, about 30 tiny baby spiders crawling on it.

Wolf spider. Needless to say I killed it immediately and sprayed the entire area with resolve just in case I missed any of the babies. This happened 3 nights ago and I haven't slept well since :'(

Unlike most spiders jumping spiders actually have good vision, they actively hunt their prey so their eye sight has to be good.

Wiki says wolfie's vision is also excellent.. says it is a good predator because of excellent vision + awesome sensitivity to touch.

lol. I believe only the 2 large eyes can resolve a sharp image. If I remember correctly the others are excellent at detecting motion and changes in light but can't resolve much of an image.
