One of my shed spiders...

Tegenaria gigantica, one of three that are in the shed/outhouse. This is the female again, but there are two males (or the was one, but the wife found one in the sink in the bathroom which I relocated last week, so now there are two males and a female - unless one has killed a rival - I often don't see any, but sometimes one makes an appearance, like here!)

This specimen has made a little funnel web behind the shovel leaned against the wall, the first is as close as I could get, with a hefty crop so you can feel her staring at you, and then you can see where the living quarters are.

WDYT?
