Found this by my garden pond yesterday. The newly emerged Large Red Damselfly has been caught by a spider. Sorry about the poor quality photo but is it good enough to get an ID on the spider? 
Cheers
Polly

Hi Polly,
There's not enough info to get to species level on this one, but its a Thomisidae, a crab spider. At a rough guess one of the Xysticus sp.
