The first and only time ive ever seen this was out on a boat on harelaw. I suspect they came off the island. We were seeing loads of them just floating by in the breeze on long threads of silk. Was really cool.

Re: Flying spiders
I've seen this quite a few times, but I didn't know the little buggers do this on purpose to move around. That's scary. lol

Re: Flying spiders
These sheep were feeding in a field of spiders. There were webs in the hedges too. It must have been migration time.
Re: Flying spiders
Not just baby spiders do it. Got some pics somewhere of quite largish spiders festooning my rods one misty night whilst barbeling.
Will try one dig them out
