Amazing... Disturbing!

According to an amazing article in the Telegraph (front page here), this is a picture of a Golden Orb Weaver spider eating a bird- a type of finch. I don't really get all revved up over holidays, but I've been following with interest all the Halloween-related posts lately. So here's my contribution.

The Telegraph, a paper out of Great Britain, often posts fascinating and amazing nature photos and sequences- the above is one of a pair. Back in July, I linked to another one of their photo series in "Crocodile: It's What's for Dinner." That one was of a leopard killing and eating a crocodile. Their news coverage is better than most US papers too- recommended.
