Packed Lunch (+PiP)

Spotted this spider in my lilac tree this morning.........in the process of wrapping up his lunch......a juicy wasp! Better viewed large.

In the PiP there is a shot of an adjacent web.

Beautiful filigree weaving! The spider has success after its hard work! The small drops of water on the other web glisten beautifully in the light! Two excellent shots!

Ich glaube,dass du da eine Gartenkreuzspinne (Araneus diadematus) entdeckt hast lieber Keith,jetzt werden diese Kunstwerke der Spinnen interessant,wenn langsam der Morgentau dazu kommt,die Spinne hat ihre Beute schon richtig verarbeitet und hat sich nicht stören lassen bei deiner tollen Aufnahme dazu,auch sehr schön ist dieser Einblick in das Spinnennetz in deinen Pip :))

Wünsche noch einen schönen Nachmittag,ganz liebe Grüße Güni :))
