St Andrew's Cross spider

St Andrew's Cross spider
When I found this spider I took the image in the PiP, not realising until later that it was of the underside. The problem was that the web was close to a wall, so taking this "top view" required stretching to reach behind, then distortions and thank heavens for adjustable viewing screens! :-) The spider sits in the web inverted. These are harmless and native to eastern Australia. Best viewed large.

A beautifully patterned individual. I used to be terrified of them but old age and photography has changed me.

Even harmless, not keen on spiders, eek. Great shot, though!

I hate spiders in the house, but don't mind them in the garden. What an interesting web construction. It should be called the Saltire spider,
