Wolf spider decorating herself with her cabbage white butterfly dinner.

I'm not sure why, but wolf spider prey shots are the most elusive spider scene I find. And that's despite there are tons of them in my woods. I usually only find the ones that hunt in the tall grass, which it bad news for these butterflies.

Just wanted to say thank you for all my long term supporters and welcome to all my new followers! It has been quite a week and I owe it all to these slimy slugs!

If you're new, be sure to check out all my old posts and stay tuned for a whole lot more interesting bug content!

RIP Dolly!

Finally got my first full timelapse of slugs making more slugs! This was about 20 minutes long (and i cut out about 5 minutes of flirting in the beginning)

I was so excited to finally use my new tripod, that I bought for exactly this reason...only to find out at 2am that the cell phone holding part unscrewe and fell off during my hike! So back to handheld, which usually looks horrible for timelapse. Surprised how smooth the video turned out (with the help of post stabilization!)

You don't often see harvestman on this side of the equation. But this beast of an assassin bug likely made quick work of this guy. (And she was considerate enough to tuck those long legs together and help make for a neat and tidy image!).

Anyone ever been bit by an assassin bug? They usually seem so uninterested in my presence. Curious what it feels like, and what you had to do to set it off.

19, 40 and 13 image stacks.

"I Got You Babe" - deadly crab spider duet rendition. 😁

This is one of my few deep stacks where the foreground came out really nicely. So many times, the depth of field is too deep, and the eventual blurriness of the foreground messes up the stack. Even slabbing doesn't always fix it.

40 image stack and 25 stack

Just a friendly tiger moth poppin' in to say hello!

I always like it when a bug hits a pose just right. Even with no real emotive facial features, the right pose can give a lot of character.
