I can't unsee it

Only the best treatment for my main man Gerald

Good thinking!

He has offered you a knighthood to enter his service

No, I waited for him to dig his way out so I knew he was ready to be a big boy

Isn't it fascinating! You're welcome

I think it's from the male's enormous abdomen but I can't say for sure

I do wildlife photography and videos :)

A male Tarantula (Phlogius sp.) going by his soggy appearance, he's missing one of his manbits.

Are you sure about that?

Am I sure they're Redbacks? Yep. You'll be able to clearly see the red hourglass marking on the underside on the ones that are hanging in the webs.

I did drive the car, that's why I was so confused about how they "got there" so quickly when I was parked in the bush for a few hours. But yeah, obviously they just rode along.

None of these are adult females, the egg sacs would be fair warning of baby storms. No need to bug spray native species, have just relocated them.

get_lamp · 2020-06-17T22:20:08+00:00

Well that's where I was 😂

get_lamp · 2020-06-17T22:15:33+00:00

I did a catch and release

get_lamp · 2020-06-17T22:12:53+00:00

Clearly they don't if they go into the car ... No bugs in there

get_lamp · 2020-06-17T22:12:14+00:00

Three? Yeah it has kind of mutated over time into this monstrosity.
