tempus fugit

Picking berries often brings you close up to small life forms you might otherwise miss. This crab spider was hanging motionless in a silken trapeze, clutching a well-wrapped fly (or its remains) like a sushi parcel.
It was only when I accidentally touched one of the web's  guy ropes that the spider scuttled deeper into the foliage. The other picture shows its likeness to a crab.
