SpidersArgiope aurantia
I stumbled upon this spider when I was searching for Monarch butterfly Caterpillars. A black-and-yellow argiope with a grasshopper dinner. Could you ID the grasshopper for me? I also thought you might like the picture.
This Grasshopper is in the family Acrididae, but it would take a far better expert than we are to identify that grasshopper wrapped in spider silk to the species level. Despite failing you in the identification, we do love your food chain photo of a Golden Orb Weaver.
