Let's get a bit closer... What a peculiar structure - bits of leaf, the white blobs - eggs? and did you spot the spider legs? Could those be eyes, I wonder, the green spheres to the right? She's built a web structure completely enclosing both her and her egg sac - bottom left - the straight leg is holding a line of silk to detect vibrations, although that may be defensive, as I suspect she'll not feed but stay inside structure until babies are ready to disperse. I visited the banksia with a pruning saw and swapped it for the camera. The pruning will have to wait.
