Alright Dundee But no, I know. Biggest ones we get are a bit smaller than that one. I just think it’s funny that almost everyone is afraid of spiders, even teeny tiny ones. It’s not their fault they look creepy, and I don’t know anyone who’s actually been ‘attacked’ by a spider

Allegedly it’s the other way around, where on average each one of us swallows 5 spiders in their sleep throughout life. Now who’s a threat to whom!

While out for a walk over the weekend, i was intrigued by this, but scared to get too close. It was definitely still active. Bees scare me!

Is this the animal that several years ago you were sending off the picture to a university or something for ID. I may have the story all wrong, something similar to that though.

@Shel75 that’s a hornets nest I believe.
Sometimes ( usually ) in the ground.
Grandaddy long legs are harmless even though they do have a toxin just not much @Just_Laura
I live w scorpions. I relocate them frequently. Once I had one in my mouth!
Last week a friend put her shoes on, ran errands around town for two hours, walked into produce dept at the grocery store and got stung in her shoe. The docile creature had been in her shoe all that time.
I could be wrong on all this. I didn’t fact check it.
Assassin beetles ( kissing bugs) can be the worst.

Nice memory 
The phascogale was an easy ID, so I think the one you thinking of is the Bettong as we sent pics off for confirmation with Lands and Wildlife. They flip flopped a bit before saying it wasn’t, but we are positive we have seen others since but not on camera.
