User's notes

Previous sighting 4445546 provides a timeline sequence of images showing a Two-tailed spider in the same location at ANBG in excess of six weeks. Whilst recently going back through sighting records for this year I came across this image which appears to show the same spider in this location as long ago as 20th May 2022. If it is the same spider (as suggested by close inspection of the body markings) then this spider has been in residence at this location in excess of 18 weeks. 4/10/2022: another image added from a 2/10/2022 sighting. Now in excess of 19 weeks in this location.
