Argiope trifasciata wrapping a grasshopper

Spider was photographed while wrapping a grasshopper. The entire process probably took
no longer than a minute. The spider worked with great speed,
ejecting rather copious amounts of silk while quickly wrapping it around the struggling grasshopper.
Location in oldfield garden on east side of farm.


other sizes: small medium original auto
