Lynx Spider and Its Trophy

View On Black

 

I found this Lynx Spider eating lunch on a nearby branch where I shot the Sharpshooter Leafhopper. It was half way done taking off the fly's head. It seemed like this Lynx was interested in the head only. I wonder why? I wished I could do stacking for these images to get more dof, but it happened too fast and the spider did not stay still for long.
