Bee wrapped up!
There was a life or death struggle between a bumble bee and some kind of spider in the backyard today. By the time I got the 100mm macro lens and the ring light set up it was all over.

Nice picture.
I believe that is an Orb Weaver spider, seem to be lots of them around recently.

Good to know. I have a vine running down the side fence. Full of flowers, bees and those spiders and my sprinkler timer box. Those buggers are lighting fast! The bee lasted about 2 seconds..that spider has some big fang injectors on it!

Speaking of spiders
I took these shot a while back when my son Rusty discovered this creature crawling out of his backpack after he returned from Grandmas house in Pahrump, NV.
Then he (or she ) got to visit the sugar jar for a couple days. |

I've had a few of those around my house. I was told they are "camel spiders," and I've let them live because they're supposed to dine on scorpions...something I hate even more than spiders.

Whatever the heck they are, I'm not gunna keep them in my house as a pet.
I think it was John here who mentioned what they are when I first posted a couple pics. Maybe it was Camel Spider as their common name. |

Believe me, they don't stay in the house. I relocate them to the known scorpion hangouts outside...let 'em fight to the death.
