South Australian resident Keith Basterfield talked with the
Goulburn Post after a similar mass ballooning event in May 2015:
It’s a natural migration phenomenon called Angel Hair, and one South Australian retiree Keith Basterfield is keen to hear more about.
“What happens is that during a particular time of the year, particularly in May and August, young spiders in the Outback somewhere throw these threads of spiderwebs up in the air and use them as a parachute to detach themselves from the ground and move in large colonies through the sky,” Mr Basterfield explained.
“They fly through the sky and then we see these falls of spider webs that look almost as if it’s snowing.
Wagga Wagga, Australia, was also briefly covered in webs in 2012 as spiders
attempted to escape rising floodwaters:"
