More Green Lynx Spider Adventures

Ignorance may be a blessing after all. The fact is, stupidity may be blessed in addition to mere ignorance. Yes. It is probably a combo of ignorance and stupidity that allows the various bugs to fly recklessly onward, progressing inevitably into the slavering maw of a great big spider.

Here one espies a southern yellowjacket killed by the same green lynx featured twain entries below.





Here is a different green lynx with a bee, probably a Dianthidium type bee.






Here is yet another of these green spiders with a snowberry clearwing. Crumby actually espied the spider get the snowberry clearwing or hummingbird moth. There was no struggle. A quick bite to the noggin finished the luckless moth off instantaneously.

Interestingly, one can find all the carcasses of the various insect victims of these spiders underneath the perch. That’s because once the spider sucks all the juice out, the bloodless victim is then simply dropped. So you may epsy all that your spider has eaten simply by looking around carefully under the perch. How about that?
