Photo Information
I think this is a huntsman spider. It shot out like a rocket when this poor bumble bee landed nearby and It was all over in a flash. After subduing it, she dragged it off to where she had been hiding

Slap in the middle of England. These are quite common garden spiders, always on the lookout and always lightning fast. To be fair, it is (was) one of the smaller bees, not the huge lumbering, bumbling ones.

What a great capture both in the photographic sense and in the intriguing world of wild life.

"In a photographic context I don't like the use of the word 'shot' as where I live this word refers to an extreme act of violence and not the beautiful craft of photography"
