Description
Crab spiders do not spin a web but are ambush predators who catch their prey by camouflage and patience. They will sit still for long periods, usually camouflaged to match the flower they are on, waiting for some unsuspecting prey to visit the flower. The two stronger and larger front legs are held sideways, ready to catch the prey. This spider, waiting on a Japanese Anemone, was rewarded for his patience with this catch.
