Dont test the Web Golden Orb spider

I went to Bibra lake to get some bird photos but the lake is totally dry grass growing not a bird in sight.

Orb weavers are reluctant to bite. Symptoms are usually negligible or mild local pain, numbness and swelling. Occasionally nausea and dizziness can occur after a bite.

I have been bitten by one not some thing I would recommend but it was over faster than a Red Back spider and way less pain full. Best to keep away from spider bites in OZ.

Aber du hast ein tolles Foto der Spinne und ihrem Netz gemacht, der Lichtpunkt genau auf dem Tier.

That is what caught my eye and the size of the web you cant see out side the shot at the 4 points.
