Argiope aurantia and his prey - Argiope aurantia

Argiope aurantia and his prey - Argiope aurantia
Victoria, Victoria County, Texas, USA
October 1, 2012
I suppose, the prey it is an Anax junius.
The spider had two such catches. (Probably a male and a female of Anax junius). They was still alive (struggling to escape, without succeed.)
