This large bodied orb spider has a complex brown and yellow pattern on her back. She is hiding in the foliage of a black wattle (Acacia) waiting for sundown. In the relative cool and safety of night she will reconstruct a large web in hope of a meal. I suspect Eriophora sp. but need to research.

These were found on the same hill about 12 months apart.
