Every once in awhile something interesting happens, except usually we miss it. While recovering from a hard, but rewarding day of harvesting grapes and catching up with the Sunday papers on Labor Day Monday, a very annoying yellow jacket wandered into the house. I don’t like yellow jackets. They eat grapes and me. But as I was about to let the beast feel the power of the press he got caught is a spider’s web, luckily my trusty Leica D-Lux 4 is great at close ups and here’s what I saw…
The nasty thing didn’t stand a chance and was soon lunch. Curiously, it seems the yellow jacket’s venom killed the spider mid-meal.
To end on a more positive note, here’s a recent photo taken during the harvest at Iron Horse Vineyards.
