Why do spiders always play hard to get and hang upside down and on there backs?

You can get pretty close to these birds, especialy when they have young.Get to close and they come at you hissing, wings spread like swans.

The bigma certainly needs a lot of care to get the right shot and it's heavy to carry around on field trips
there are not so many choices when it comes to long lens for the pentax fit though.

Nice shot Don, Can't say I have ever seen one down here, are they native to Queensland:
Other names are christmas spider or Jewel spider, they live in shrubery and are said to be harmless to humans
