Spider webbing on Black Sage

This is spider webbing strung between old seed whorls of native Black Sage (Salvia mellifera, Lamiaceae) - with a spider with prey. I believe this is the work of a Mesh Web Weaver spider in the family Dictynidae. The webbing joins the seed whorls like rigging on a dusty ship model. (San Marcos Pass, 15 November 2021)
