Well here is a new one on me. I've been in Florida since 1959, except duty time, and never saw this. Last nite I was looking to see what what was digging up my lawn. Iwas using my old streamlite flashlight, 20,000 candle power, and was scanning my side yard, corner lot. I see see what looks like "sparkles" in the grass. Maybe the light reflecting back at me. I saw some of them were "twinkling". There must have been 25-30 of the them. I walked over and at first I could not see what it was. Upon closer examination I saw"SPIDERS" !!!!!! I said ,No not really. I checked out some other "sparkles" and SPIDERS!!! What the heck was going on?? We were being invaded by the "spider beings" from another planet. Well anyways, has anyone ever seen this before??? Never found out what was digging the holes. Saw 2 "diller" holes but the others went straight down, no mound. you know, maybe I should have posted this in "skunk ape" category, or the twilight zone. :clap
