the spider and the butterflies

    Photographing butterflies among low shrubs and grasses noticed a butterfly [Ringlet (Aphantopus hyperantus)] captured by the spider. I took a picture of this dramatic scene. After a few minutes I returned to this place and I noticed that another butterfly [Heath Fritillary (Melitaea athalia)] was caught. I made the photo and on I went to the meadow. Then i came back again. another butterfly (another Heath Fritillary) was trapped, and also and it was photographed.Successful hunts have this tiny little spider.
     Here are some pictures of the event.
