Gorging on Grasshoppers

This banana spider has made a web near the crinum lilies. This week, B saw it was dining on a grasshopper. Since grasshoppers leave unsightly holes in the long crinum leaves, we were not too unhappy to see that there would be one fewer grasshoppers to do the damage.

The following day, there was no sign of the grasshopper, but I was thinking the spider looks rather well-fed in both pictures.

I might have even heard a tiny burp.
