This green heron made a series of high pitch calls while I was taking pictures of an alligater and a sandpiper. I kept looking back and I couldn't find it. Finally, I saw a little shadow under the tree. Then I turned my attention to it. Here it was. Within the shooting ranger of my 300mm and under the perfect lighting.

I watched as this female golden silk spider (the larger one) seemed to pursue the smaller one. The larger spider is a female, the smaller a male. I surmised they had mated, and the female intended to eat the male, something that often happens when spiders mate. While I watched, she didn't manage to catch him, but she may have done so after I left.
