Macro photography - Week 3 by Bambuka
But he's sitting in a dark corner and watching me. More precisely, we are watching each other.
I managed to set up a tripod, tune in approximately to the center of the web and waited. After a while, the owner of the network appeared. But I had to catch a small fly and put it in the net. The reaction was very fast.
He got rid of this midge almost instantly. And he began to fix his web.
I tried shooting it without a tripod. A very difficult task... get close to the spider and not touch its threads. When touched, he immediately runs away to his corner...
Lying on the veranda, I felt that someone was crawling on my arm. Trying to shake off the guest, I got a wasp sting in my hand. For this, the wasp was punished. I caught her and took her to the spider. The camera was in the same place and before giving the wasp to be eaten, I turned on the camera, set it up and got ready to shoot...
I didn't have time to film a tenth of the drama. The spider's reaction was so instantaneous that I managed to pull the trigger when the wasp was in deep captivity...
It's some kind of super spider. With his hind legs he pulled out a film of cobwebs, and with the rest of his paws he twisted the wasp...
That day I fed him three wasps. He didn't eat the third one right away, apparently he was full.
Here's a story for the contest Macro photography - Week 3 | Daily Photography Challenge | "Capture, Click, Compete!"
Роскошный паук! Мне таких в это лето не встречалось.
Знаю ещё одного, в дровах живёт.
Жаль, уезжать завтра, скорее всего не успею его заснять))
Возьми его с собой :)
добрая, как всегда )))
ему может понравиться жить на твоём балконе )
не судьба... я вернулся домой без него ))

Сначала отремонтировал ловчую сеть, потом упаковал добычу)
Читала, что на паутине паук не сидит просто так - либо ремонт сетей, либо разбор добычи. Обычно он где-то на переферии бдит и у него есть специальная сигнальная нить паутины.
этот субъёкт имеет обыкновение либо сидеть в верхнем левом углу (там есть кусочек пакли), либо практически по центру паутины.
Но как он ловко пакует добычу... я теперь знаю, зачем у него там много ног)))
