Watery end
I know this seems macabre, especially after highlighting yesterday's variation on the spider predation theme. But today's discovery of a Six-spotted Fishing Spider taking an Eastern Pondhawk dragonfly by surprise at the end of the millpond was just too good to pass up. The ode never saw his end coming, as the spider, which was hiding under a patch of duckweed, rocketed out of the water and snagged the unwary dragonfly. There was no escape after that, which, though sad, is sometimes just the way nature works.
