Wolf Spider in Burrow with Spider Prey!!
CHECK THIS OUT!!! I am extremely proud of these two pictures because these spiders are notoriously skittish. Unless you're looking carefully, finding a spider's burrow is difficult unless it's been raining. I've found many of these cool-looking tubes, but I never see the spiders. The second they feel Godzilla Janet stomping along, they are down the tube!
A week or so ago, I noticed a few of these burrows and saw a spider just as it was disappearing into its burrow, and for the first time I got excited. I decided to look carefully for these burrows with a very light step and see if I might get lucky enough to get a picture. A couple of days ago I went on a walk and saw a large one, and stopped instantly because there was a spider there!! I started taking pictures and couldn't believe it was still there! I slowly moved closer and closer until it finally had enough and disappeared. I was so excited! It wasn't until I looked at the pictures on my computer that I realized why it hadn't moved! It must have just caught a spider and was distracted while tending to it, and I got pictures!! I'm so happy! Not only did I finally get a picture of this skittish spider, but it has a spider victim in its mouth!! What a prize!! HOORAY!!! :D
