Red-spotted Purple (Limenitis arthemis) on butterfly bush, Petersham, #Massachusetts. Wing damage is evident, most likely from a bird attack.

Wow what a scene. Moulting renders insects vulnerable. A while back I witnessed how a hornet Vespula germanica chewed on the soft wings of a moulting Egyptian bird grasshoper, Anacridium aegyptium http://www.inaturalist.org/observations/91574142
I too wonder why insects have such a weak point. Only social insects, who protect each other, are spared. Others have to dig themselves into crevices, like solitary bees, yet are still subject to predation.

Robber flies are superb hunters—their visual acuity is also the stuff of legend:

We love the grass snakes in/around our pond, but listening to a #frog being predated by a #GrassSnake is always a gruesome experience.
However, without #predation there are no #snakes. Unusual is the late time of the day (about 6 pm) and the overcast sky. Usually the snakes hunt in full sun.

04/30/2023 1/3 3 different Herons that were hunting that day. I've seen Green Herons make amazing catches. But not this day. This heron stabbed, but "ran out of Heron", went in, missed! Wet, hungry, maybe embarrassed. I read the raised head crest as annoyance. video that goes with all these images: https://www.rickubis.com/rick/greenherons04302023_4096.mp4 Older video with a good catch: http://www.rickubis.com/rick/green_heron_042212_2020.mp4 #heron #birds #archosaurs #wildlife #predation

Adding insult to injury: anthropogenic noise intensifies predation risk by an invasive freshwater fish species. Congratulation to Marina for this research project.

Specifically, we started a series on the evolution of competition in the Canadian airline industry, and the evolution of related competition laws and policies. This issue focuses on the Air Canada predation case that started my career at the Competition Bureau nearly 25 years ago.
