I posted a request on the SA Birdnet regarding the ID of the 2 spiders.
I have had a great response from numerous people, many providing good contacts to assist with the ID.
At this stage, regarding the second image, I have had 2 names put forward:
1 - Pisauridae family
2 - Long-jawed water Orb-web spider
This still requires confirmation, as I am not fully convinced yet.
The third and fourth image has turned out to be a female Orb-Web Spider of the Neoscona Spp,or the Hairy Field Spider to us laymen.
I will post a confirmation on the second image when I have an answer!
Thank you to all the responses from everyone!!
