Who will eat whom?

Here we have a typical long legged harvestman, an arachnid but not a true spider, tangled up with a speckled bush cricket. How it happened, I don’t know.

Many species of harvestmen are omnivorous, eating primarily small insects and all kinds of plant material and fungi, but I suspect this speckled bush cricket may be a bit large for it

Speckled bush crickets are primarily herbivores.
Their diet mainly consists of leaves and flowers, but they may also consume other plant matter like berries.

I watched for a while and they both sloped off without a fuss.
