One day I went exploring in the shed and found an orange and black tarantula. One of its legs was as long as my middle finger. It was eating a cricket. But then it moved because I poked it with a stick. I poked its abdomen and it ran away from me.
At first I saw a lot of crickets. Then I saw about five crickets. There are spiders in the shed too. The shed smells like rotten cheese. It was not totally dark.
There were cracks that let in light. The tarantula might have ran away through the cracks and now lives happily in the forest.
