Foraging
When California Spreadwings have emerged to perch and conduct
behaviors related to reproduction, they are opportunistic foragers of small
arthropods (mostly species of ßies).
26. Male, hanging from a Bermudagrass leaf, ingests a small ßy (note his
blue lower mouth parts are opened) (12/03/25).
27. Male, hanging from a dead twig, appears to ingest something
mysterious that he captured (12/03/25).
