I love spiders! I sat at a window for about half an hour one day watching a big one (for these parts ) who had a fat red wasp of equal size caught in its web. They were literally fighting to the death... the wasp was trying to spear the spider and the spider was trying to get good position to bite the wasp! It was so exciting! I was rooting for the spider, of course, and actually jumped up & cheered for it when it finally managed a bite. A couple of hours later, the wasp was packaged in silk and the spider was sitting on it having dinner
