Nephila plumipes
I believe this is a female as it is quite big (please let me know if I am wrong.) The 2nd picture shows her food parcels.
Seems like a huge spider. A bit frightening...Not sure If I would have the courage to get close enough to take the picture. Thanks for sharing.
I think there is another species that can be found in Victoria as well. Yours is certainly a female Nephilia species. Theres lots of info here http://www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_...
