I think this Black Widow's eyes (all of them) were bigger than her stomach! Not quite sure how she plans to handle such a meal but she appears to making a good go at it! I had to do a double take when I saw the large beetle in the web at first. As shown in the first pick it appeared that the beetle had extra legs......yeah no....not the beetle's legs at all....it was then that I noticed the spider behind the beetle.

Cool! She’s already quite well-rounded. 🙂 Spiders can save their left-overs like people do. They can wrap the super-sized meal in silk, which acts like plastic wrap keeping the food fresh for a while. I often find spiders the same way -” what’s with that bug with all the extra body parts?”
