Spider Haven

My astrophotography at my DIY observatory has now ben put on hold indefinately due to a funnel web spider encounter!

Went to image the Swan Nebula last night and opened the observatory door - went to move a box and there it was! a male funnel web waiting for me!

I think its time to do a ground based inspection, clear away loose leaves, spray outdoor spider repellant before I attempt a life thratening imaging session!

It must be that time of year for funnel web mating!
