Hunter predator EXPLORED
I watched this large hornet fly in to a spiders web storage area where the spider had placed it's latest catch then pull it from up behind the flower chew it's abdomen and then pull it away. The spider was about the same size but made no attempt to get it's catch back. What you see here is the stretching of the body pull just before flying away. This whole thing took about a minute from start to finish.
