Great capture - did you stick around long enough to see if it managed to finish its meal?

Nah - it started raining...but it was eating that for a while...although it did eat around half of it whilst I was bothering it with the giant eye in the sky haha. Shame it was so small though - I had to crop it close to 100%.

Nice shot Phil Im amazed at what large prey some of these little critters will take, great looking Spider.

If it wasn't for the head being half eaten, I would be wondering which was prey and which were predator!

Nice one Phil , no idea what it's eating. Ive got some images of a very small Orb eating a Greebottle which I will post in the future.

Is that just a normal spider. Detail is scary, doesn't help I don't like spiders

I don't know what spider it is exactly, but it's about a quarter the size of your finger nail...
