Itsy, bitsy, tiny translucent white spider carrying its next meal

Just wasn't able to be steady enough to increase the magnification with camera on a monopod and trying to prevent the rose stem from swaying in the wind.

Olympus EM1ii camera with 60mm macro lens and a Godox flash.

It had caught it's lunch, and when I started messing around with the rose stem trying to hold it steady for a picture, the spider decided it was time to exit, stage down. It also tried to go to the backside of the stem so I couldn't see it.
Probably learned that from watching the squirrels!

Download photo #1, then click + and you will see that it is a lousy photo, that Jim fingered] out how to take. Enlarge it with down load and + you will understand the play on words.

Clear photo of a spider's meal... great shot Jim,

I kind of thought it might be a louse. And in observing the baby robins recently raised in my yard, and now left the nest, and watching how much pecking and scratching they were doing, I have a good idea of where they originated from.
