Spider in the pool
Much excitement this morning as Sue was preparing to go for a swim and found our first 'significant' spider in the pool! Pretty sure it was a Funnel-web - one of the most dangerous spiders on earth - and we had been warned about them falling into swimming pools where they can stay alive for several days, so still have to be treated with caution.

This one was about 1.5cm long and was floating on the surface, supported by lots of small air bubbles around its legs and body. When prodded it was very stiff but, after we'd all had a good look, I scooped it out with the net and treated it with the bottom of my shoe!
