GOTHCHA !!
This yellow flower crab spider sits motionless on yellow flowers and then surprises it’s prey. Here, a helpless bee is easy pickens . The yellow flower crab spider blends in seemlessly in yellow flowers, and is practically invisible to the naked eye. I checked in on this guy all day. He sat patiently for 12 hours, until the moment was just right. He uses no webs-just camouflage and precision timing!
Nature is amazing!

This is amazing…
I’d love to know how you get the shot so clear with such a good depth of field.
I’m also envious that you found a crab spider, I know we get them here in the south east of england but I have never in my whole life seen even one.

Crab spiders also known as Flower spiders are the coolest. The sit on the edge of flower with there 2 front legs out and grab things. Really cool. This photo is excellent!

they are a most unique spider, we have them in white but they are able to gradually change their colour to the flower they are currently resting on, a most excellent capture
