Stretch marks

The biggest flower spider I have ever seen - and she was justifiably shy.

She may be heavily pregnant, but I know nothing of spider reproduction and I didn't like to ask, just in case she wasn't. That would have embarrassed both of us.

She might just be overweight. She could be - there are so many tiny flies and bees around, she's probably been gorging herself for days.

The equivalent of spider chocolate.
