Thanks Scott,
Too big, if you ask me. I'm not that fond of spiders.

Ah she's a lovely orb weaver, leave her be, she does a lot of good. They're not aggressive spiders either, they'll quite happily leave you alone.

No need to worry about me going near it. ...other than to photograph it. I know they go thump when they hit the ground because one got on me a while ago and I knocked it off. {{quiver}
Thanks for the comments.
