Holy Mother of God, the Most Giant Recluse of Them All

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the 8th brown recluse of 2008 At the Cabin:


This spider escaped me in the bedroom earlier; I just came across it again and SCARPed it and my oh my, it is THE BIGGEST brown recluse I have yet seen. Great googley moogley. My. My, my, my. It appears to be dusted all over with a fine crystalline powder. And what is up with the hairy legs? At least, hairy upper thighs? Recluses do not have spines on their legs, but I guess that does not count hairs, because I see some here, and I see the eyes, and I see the fiddle. It's a recluse, all right.
