Default I think she just ate her boyfreind!

Only a couple of days before taking this picture, there were two of them, then all of a sudden there was only one. The book says that sometimes the female eats the male after mating.
Oh BTW, I tried some PP work for the first time with this pic.

I like it Paul, good detail and colour, and then there was one, I think there maybe a prima facie case to answer
I also like the new Paulspix signature
