This is the third photo in my Holiday Cheer series.  It was also captured at the Filoli Mansion - an historic site of the National Trust for Historic Preservation and one of the finest remaining country estates of the early 20th century.   I love how they change up the decorations at the mansion every year.  This tree was so creative - all the ornaments on it were colorful desserts.  They even had tables nearby with pastry dessert towers filled with these ornaments - if you weren't careful, you might just bite into them, they looked so yummy. :D Posted 2 December 2010.

This is a photo of a wild tarantula I found prowling the trails of Mount Diablo State Park in Northern California. Yes, even tarantulas have a mating season - so every September the mature male tarantulas come out of their burrows looking for love.  If you walk slowly, and look closely, you can find them.  I let this one crawl all over my legs to see if I could get a good shot of him (I was wearing jeans of course)  :)  The local tarantula expert I spoke to in the area said it wasn't a good idea to let them crawl on your bare skin (other than hands perhaps) - this is because the tarantulas use their hairs as a defense mechanism, sort of like a porcupine.  Tarantula hairs have little barbs on the ends of them and will stick in your skin, causing a rash.  If you ever find one with a hairless rear-end, then you know it's felt harassed.  They'll raise their rear end, and use their back legs to scrape the hairs off their backside - they'll then wave their legs in the air to stir up the hairs in the hopes their harasser will breath them in.  Barbed hairs inside your nose - must be really uncomfortable!
