When i went for a walk out in the forest out the back I came across this fellow at about KNEE high in the grasses.... obviously i walked around him and then took his photo.... i was surprised at how large he was. See the weird alien head silhouette on his back. Would love to know the species name. I did notice the distinctive zig zag mark on it's web.... might be a clue.
