Description
I was following the caterpillar (possibly of the Buff Tip Moth - not sure) for some time. They move surprisingly fast! Suddenly there was a flurry of movement and what I can only assume is Wolf Spider or similar breed grabed the caterpillar and tried to make a meal of it.
I tried to get as many "good" shots as I could, but for some reason I was finding it very hard to focus (either from excitement of the moment or plain ineptitude :P ). This is the best shot I manged to get.
Comments appreciated as always :) :)
Thanks for looking

Whoa that is just too close up for me! Even though it may not be clear as a bell, it sure is exciting and filled with life and death! Well done!

Yeah, the excitement and short time to focus with many movements can make it hard! Great find of this impressive event!
