CLOSE TO THE CREATURES WITH PAPA - TARANTULA II

in photography •  8 years ago 

I am really enjoying this new STEEM-powered camera!

For so many years, photography wasn't really even an interest. With no real outlet for it, I just carried on with other things in life. Now, thanks to steemit, I have and outlet, and even a new STEEM-Powered camera to take my photos with.

It is exciting and rewarding to be able to get right up in the face of a creature like this and take some excellent photos. I am so amazed by all the creatures that live around us, and documenting them in such daring detail is a treasure. I am so glad that I was able to run into another Tarantula and take the opportunity to shoot some photos. Here they are.

As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:

    Up close it looks fuzzy and sort of cute, though spiders give me the heebie-jeebies. I used to be terrified of them but now I'm able to observe them calmly as long as it's outside. We don't have tarantulas here in north GA, although some spiders come close in size. Also, I am so, so thankful spiders don't fly.

How do you educate your children about safety regarding these spiders? I grew up in South Carolina and I remember my parents explaining the difference between a Copperhead, Water Moccasin and Black snakes were were all common in our area. Black widow spiders were always found under objects lying on the ground. I developed a healthy respect for these creatures however where we live in indian, I have yet to see a poisonous snake.

                                                                                                  Also can you elaborate on what you mean by "Steem powered Camera".

                                                                                                  Thank you.

                                                                                                    As for the children, they get to see and observe all the dangerous animals so that they know what they look like. Once, I even brought home a Black Widow Spider just to show them. Before too long I picked up some boards to move and one of the @little-peppers notified me that a Black Widow was on the boards. Good thing I taught them.

                                                                                                    Although I let them handle and interact with snakes, they are not allowed to pick up or look for any on their own. even if they are familiar with a non-venomous, they cannot pick them up on their own.

                                                                                                    Most of the Pygmy Rattlers I've caught are ones that the children saw and notified me.

                                                                                                    The spider was just a few feet from the property line of the land we bought. Truly, there may be danger everywhere in the world, but if we are educated, we can be wise.
