User's notes

Found in our backyard (which is why I suppressed the address, we are in Farrer ACT though). We have 2 holes that are around the size of a 20 cent piece, the one photographed is the bigger of the two and honestly this hole is larger than a 20 cent piece by a little. Just wondering what they are. Can't find a trap door plug like others we have had in the past, neither has one. Large looking spider inside each that look the same. This is the second one we found. The other I can't get pictures of the spider itself and the burrows are about 5 metres away from eachother. Pretty cool, just curious as to what they are. Leaving them alone to do their thing, won't be removing them :)
