User's notes

Same spider originally shown in sighting 4373081. The first photo, taken on the morning of 7 May, shows her with two moths caught during the night (moths 29 and 30). The next two photos were taken at 9.30 and 12.30 on 8 May, and show her feeding on two of three moths caught on the next night (moths 32 and 33). She had already finished and discarded moth 31 before I checked.
