Spider - Hyllus semicupreus (Female)
One of the most interesting encounters I have ever seen... This small jumping spider was battling with a Gigantic Grasshopper. This war happened for half an hour and finally jumping spider got its meal..It was amazing to watch.. Hope you too will enjoy the pics..
