Australia Is One Big Nope

Occurred: March 10, 2017 / Kholo, Queensland, Australia

Info from Licensor: "During a termite inspection for a client, I noticed a large huntsman spider, which isn't all that unusual for these parts. What was unusual was that it didn't scurry away because it was standing guard over a recently hatched egg case with a large number of hatchlings around the nest. For the record, these spiders are beneficial in keeping down the numbers of other pests and venomous spiders, so this spider and her babies are still living, helping me by removing other unwanted pests from my clients home."
