Caught this Spider wrapping up a Japanese Beetle in a bit of styrofoam. Somehow I don't think we was concerned about his swimming safety.
Very little PP. Should have done more. Anyways...

Yes I thought it was styrofoam but I'm not familier with insect behaviour. I guess it would in make sense for a spider to attach the sac to a bug for their youngs first meal but I have no idea if they do this. ? ? ? Anyone?
