Sitting on verandah last night I saw a huntsman spider making the most of the light - they have learned that it attracts insects and hang around waiting for food to come to them. This one has grabbed a beetle - There are over 150 species of huntsman in Australia. Fortunately they're not aggressive - although if you bother a female guarding here eggs she might get a bit grumpy - especially one of the species that don't eat for 3 weeks until the eggs have hatched.
