I don't know how to put this delicately. This spider has left our sweet Earth with his flag all the way up the pole. He has kicked the bucket while pitching a tent. He's pushing up daisies at full salute. He gave up the ghost to a standing ovation. /1

Scolopendra gigantea. South American Giant centipede. No edit. No adjustments. Just true it self.

Ashdown Forest spider survey on Saturday. Sadly no sign of Thanatus formicinus - but plenty of other interesting spiders vacuumed (samples still to 🔬🕷️). Now that's what I call a sorting tray @graemelyons @NTClumberPark @BritishSpiders
