 Congratulations to Dappy for his crab spider catching a wasp! No, a fly!  I chose the first shot but posted them both showing the action. Dap, please let MILTA know where to send your prize honey!  And Wildwatcher has the runner-up spot with this great mushroom shot!

Actually the spider caught a fly. Members of the Physocephala genus mimic wasps.

First I want to say thank you...and second I want to say that I was shocked to find out that I won--MrILoveTheAnts sent me a PM, so I opened that first. I hadn't even seen which photo won. I told Jeff, and he guessed right. This is my sweetest win to date!
Yum...my mouth is already watering.Congratulations, ww...I'm feeling kind of bad that I get the honey...I had already decided what to say if I got runner up (which I thought I might): "Can I at least get a spoonful?" If you were coming out our way for the meet-up, I'd make sure you'd get a taste.

I actually had your saddleback caterpillar photo pegged as one of the likely winners. Yours were quite outstanding as well.

I'm glad that you picked the first one, because that was the one I chose first to enter...but when I needed a 5th, I thought I'd better go with more of a close-up.
