Spider having lunch
One from Saturday. I think it was a bluebottle it was eating. It was absolutely gross.

One (wo)man's/spider's meat is another (wo)man's/spider's poison, Maggie. :biggrin: :wink:
A good capture, a shame the perch obscures some of the spider's meal, though.

:toast: :toast: :jump:

Well done.

Geoff.

Nice one Maggie. Bit more DOF woulf have helped but you haven't got much to play with using a 150 and a tube.
