While looking through the forums, I figured this was the right place to post this.
While searching through my photos, I came across this one from this past summer. I don't think I posted it before, if I did, please forgive me. ![]()

I saw an arachnid eating insect in the garden last summer.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarantula_hawk When I saw it I wasn't even scared, I was too astonished to be anything other than astonished. The thing was massive, and appeared to have been designed by a heavy metal band. It also had the habit of keeping it's wings beating on idle rpm, reminiscent of a helicopter landing in combat situations. Quote:

No, no...I meant the arachnid was eating the butterfly...but the other post was about an insect that eats arachnids.
