Are Spiders getting bigger?

Has anyone noticed that there are loads of spiders around this year, and that they are huge. This one was in my garden, and I know the photo makes him look small but he was huge. Is this an Irish spider or did he sneak over with a bunch of smellys?

Deer Patrol, Part 3

Should think of renaming this to almost everything except Deer Patrol due to the lack of deer.
What we did capture this week was some kind of rodents, and a great example of a Hare. What is impressive is that the camera is sensitive enough to pick up the rodents even tough it is set to medium sensitivity.
I plan at some stage in the future to put the camera near a badger or fox den to see what results we can see. We have moved the camera to view pasture instead of trails, and have returned it to picture mode so fingers crossed.
