There is barely a fight with those Crab Spiders they just go for the kill and usually get it right the first time.

Spiders inject a paralyzing toxin and enzymes into the victim. The toxin shuts down respiration, and the enzyme breaks down the soft tissues so the spider can drink them like a shake. It really creeps me out as I'm walking away form a scene like that one...

I've watched as a crab spider turned the victim so it could be bitten in different areas. I've got several shots of the same spider but with the bee in different "poses" -creepy...

I scare away more than I shoot -very skittish most of the time. Thanks for the props!
