Wasp Spider - Beamsville, ON


This is what greeted me as I opened the blind on our lounge window yesterday. A rate british spider that usually builds its web in tall grass to catch grass hoppers.  It has a distinctive zigzag pattern down the centre of the web to reinforce it (it did have this yesterday but it's been torn)

Currently its eating daddy long legs, thoughtfully fed to it by David cheered on by the boys.
