Title: What is this?
Post by: colinanddenise on July 26, 2007, 20:35:48 PM
Hi all

Just found this photo from a visit to kayakoy and wondered if anyone can help with what it is?
(http://hhtp://i192.photobucket.com)

hope this comes off or i look like techno geek

The image is of some sort of arachnid (i'm the anorak)
we saw it at at the top in the ghost town by the church, some sort of spider we assumed but appeared to carry a ball about the size of an acorn. It was in a hole in the ground and we stood there for ages and it did not move. Is it native to Turkey?, poisonous etc.

Any ideas?
