Spider's Got a Fly Feast - A Pennsylvania Predator in Action!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, nature's drama unfolds as the Six Spotted Fishing Spider indulges in a delectable Dung Fly meal. Captured by the talented photographer David Northcott, this image showcases the incredible hunting prowess of these arachnids. Perched on a leaf in picturesque Pennsylvania, our eight-legged protagonist is not one to shy away from an appetizing insect encounter. With its intricate web-spinning skills and lightning-fast reflexes, this spider has turned its surroundings into its very own gourmet restaurant. As it sinks its fangs into the hapless Dolomedes triton Centra (the unfortunate Dung Fly), you can almost hear the spider saying, "Bon appétit!". The intensity of the moment is palpable; even scarier than any Hollywood thriller! This photograph beautifully captures both predator and prey amidst their natural habitat. It serves as a reminder that while spiders may evoke fear for some, they play an essential role in maintaining ecological balance by keeping bug populations under control. So next time you stumble upon this extraordinary image by Danita Delimont or find yourself face-to-face with a fishing spider like our friend here - take a moment to appreciate their remarkable abilities and maybe even offer them your respect. . . from a safe distance!
