Death of a butterfly

[SARtech]

This was hard to shoot. At first, before I got closer, I just thought I was shooting a pretty butterfly. As I looked closer I'm like "what the heck is that round white thing?!" ewwwww! I checked to see if it was still alive cuz I was going to free it. Nope... it was sad.
I'd never seen a white spider before so I looked it up. I believe its called a crab spider.
Normally, I like spiders because they kill a lot of irritating bugs, but this just ain't right.

Nice shot, it's easy to see how that spider could blend in with the white flowers and lay in wait.

Hey now, spiders gots to eats too!

Observe, shoot, and don't disturb is my motto.


Cool shot btw.
