Golden Orb Weaver Spider...don't worry though

An Aussie snapped a picture of this golden orb weaver spider eating a stinking bird!

A spider was eating a bird.

Not a humming bird, an actual bird-bird.

See:



But the quote that makes the story is this one:
Mr Shakespeare told ninemsn the bird, a chestnut-breasted mannikin
which appears frozen in an angel-like pose in the pictures, is likely to have
flown into the web and got caught. "It wouldn't eat the whole bird," he
said.


Oh, well if it wouldn't eat the whole bird then that's no big deal. For a second there I was worried.
