This Damselfly wasn't very lucky. The spider had caught him and by the time I got to them, he was dead. It is sad, but part of life. The spider needs to eat.
About Me
- Ananka
- I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)
You're right, it's part of life.
ReplyDeleteIt is! :-D
Delete...this is how nature is.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is Tom :-D

ReplyDeletePart of life! :-D
DeleteYes, you are correct! It is a part of life.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
The spider needs to eat. Thanks Jan :-D
DeleteThat's right, the spider is a predator too.
ReplyDeleteIt is! Thanks Giorgio :-D
DeleteI am not quite sure why you took the damselfly away from the spider, Ananka. Having trapped it in the way that spiders do, surely she was entitled to the meal. Now the damselfly is still dead and the spider goes hungry.
ReplyDeleteI didn't take it away. I left it there for the spider to have. I stopped to see if it was alive, then took the photo and walked off. I really like spiders and would never deprive her of her catch! I am sure she enjoyed it. :-D
DeleteThe cruel nature
ReplyDeleteNature can be cruel in this respect, but it is needed :-D
DeleteYep, that's the way of things.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is the way :-D
DeleteAwww
ReplyDeleteI know Greg!
DeleteAh well. Nice capture though by the spider and you! 😜
ReplyDeleteHaha yes. My hand was there to help with focus lol!
DeleteBuena foto.
ReplyDeleteThanks :-D
DeleteJust happened to be on the wrong spot on the food chain.
ReplyDeleteIt was Kirk and you know those webs are very sticky too!
DeleteCosì è la vita!
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is Irina! :-D
DeleteAnanka,
ReplyDeleteThis is the food chain that moves life. I think that only human beings take the lives of their fellow human beings without there being anything that justifies this attitude
A hug and I join your “blog” friends.
It certainly is and is a must in life. I do agree with that, he are a cruel species. Thanks :-D
