This is the first of this species I have seen, and she has taken up residence in my garden above the pond.

I understand this spider is a Golden Orb Web Spider (Nephila pilipes) and the female can grow to 50mm.

Yeah, relatively common around here. One foolish specimen insisted on stringing her web between my car aerial and the carport wall every night.

Not recommended for walking into in the dark if you happen to be arachnophobic either. :)
