The Fen Raft Spider is roughly the size of an adult male’s hand, and can spin webs as big as pizzas (25cm).

They are also semi-aquatic and can run across the water’s surface to capture their prey.

    I didn’t notice until you mentioned it!

    So the top one in a house I don’t recognise, and the bottom one on a web … a black widow or red something … As you maybe able to tell, I’m not really a spider fan!

      I hate spiders, know thine enemy I guess.

      Top one is an Australian huntsmen. Bottom one looks like an orb weaver of some kind.
