entomology off topic questions

I'm not sure about the moth, but the egg sacs belong to a Bolas spider e.g.

Hi Folks

To those many out there who are better natural historians than me, two ID questions: an impressively large moth, and a rather strking cocoon (or rather, a set of three). The cocoons were hanging from a westringia bush. The location is just south of Narooma on the NSW south coast; a bush property on the slopes of Mt Gulaga. Moth photo-ed yesterday; the cocoons, today

Thanks 

Kim
