Wow! This is incredible
Thank you empidonax. That is funny Adarsha, I dont thing it wants to share... but has no choice! ;)
This is a really cool photo.
Uninvited guests ! Same thing happens with Humans...If spider is happy to share last piece of food, then good...Else, its very bad...
Indeed Adarsha, the spider does all the hard work! Then the Jackal flies and cotton stainers come in for a bite...
Unbelievable..There is a whole bunch of creatures...4 spottings embeded in one...Looks like a nest !!!
Thank you Mayra
I found a few in the garden and every other day I get to witness this amazing display of nature!
Incredible, great series!
Thanks ceherzog.
Totally outstanding!
Gracias Harsuame, thank you Arvin, S Frazier and Karen. I will surely love to join those missions and add them, thanks for the heads up K!
Wonderful capture Dez!
You might like to add this to a couple more missions - "interaction between different species of arthropod", & "hunters & animal food habits". Both are global missions.

Thank you everyone, yes patty, it is a messy display of eat or be eaten!
interesting spotting and picture although it seems one of those quite messy encounters of nature. which will result in some loss...
Wow amazing series :)
