Neat Capture! I have always wished I had taken pictures of a wasp carrying off one of my caterpillars on the Candlebush.

the one on the left side retreated to the underside of the leaf and then jumped to the ground....

it was just a fraction of moment... i was actually looking for butterflies, suddenly two big jumpies on a leaf caught my attention. they were frozen for a moment then both raised their front legs as you can see in the pic. after that the big one chased the small one out of the leaf.. i was able to take just two photographs..
