This struggle was over by the time I happened on it. I had never seen a redback Jumping spider attack a caterpillar before. The caterpillar was substantially bigger than the spider, and must have been a bit of a struggle. I was careful not to interrupt the spider while feeding since it was on a ledge and I did not want it to lose it’s hard won meal.

Sometimes I am thankful these things are small
