So I got out of work early and swung by the park. I was walking the bushes looking for insects. It was very windy, and leaves were cascading down into the bushes. While I'm looking at a sweat bee, a leaf lands right in front of me with, what looked like, a fly stuck to it. I picked the leaf up to look closer, and a jumping spider had the fly in it's mouth. I carried the leaf over to the hood of my truck and snapped some pics...
