One of the resident predators in our society’s garden, this has been seen feeding on the Nomad bees and other visitors that keep on flying by to nectar on the periwinkle flowers. For few days I couldn’t spot it around, atleast not with any prey, only to spot it resting underneath the periwinkle plant’s leaf, almost invisible to the usual line of sight. The reason for remaining out of sight was the egg sac that it had laid on the tipoff the leaf. It kept itself close to the future generation and tried to keep itself out of vision, probably to avoid getting disturbed. The unusual location, called for an unusual approach for framing the beauty along with its egg sac.
EXIF:
Canon 80D
Canon 100mm macro
F/16
Shutterspeed 1/250
ISO 500
Handheld(upside down), external flash fired
