Tearing apart the early catch

[Prajwal J Ullal]

ID: Lynx spider with a fly catch

Spotted this beauty perched on top of a leaf and seemed to be trying to evade the lens but later turned out it was trying to catch a tiny fly and eventually caught one and started tearing it apart. It seemed to open up the fly using its front legs and enjoyed the morning catch

Nice action captured. Good you got it head on with the fly visible in front. The low angle is nice. Nicely captured. Thanks for sharing.
