Author's notes

This Wolf Spider, with prey, was tiny. The only reason I saw it was because of the reflection from its eyes. My head light was getting a very strong return back intriguing me as to what was causing the reflection. I was absolutely amazed when I saw how small this spider was compared to the bright reflection from its eyes. The spider had been successful in hunting already, with a small beetle in its fangs about to become a meal.
