Rough day


Here a tarantula hawk
is hauling off a tarantula to it's nest. Read about the fascinating drama of these species
interactions...
In getting the picture, at one point, I was clearly annoying the tarantula hawk wholeft the spider for a bit to a buzz and advance toward me . I backed off quickly They have a nasty sting. ...He was really defending his prize and was not to be deterred.
