    Great photo, looks like the spider is about to grab the skipper but I don’t think it would be much of a match up.

    Looks to me like the moth told the spider “hands off until I’m finished” :-) Another great shot…

    I agree w/ some of the others – looks like that spider wants to grab that pretty butterfly – but it would be too big of a meal for him to hang onto. Neat photo!

    It looks like a showdown! Very nice capture. And the hibiscus above this is so, so pretty. I don’t see yellow often in hibiscus.
