As it gets colder and the wasp are dying off, I imagine they are much easier to capture or maybe it was already dead before the spider came by. anyway, another excellent macro here.

Cheers. Herb

Es ist schon erstaunlich, dass die Spinne ein gefährliches Insekt, wie diese Wespe, fängt.
Eine schöne Entdeckung, detailliert gezeigt!
