Crab Spider

Some Crab Spiders at Boora Parklands 10 June 2012. I waited and waited and waited for a fly to land and be pounced on but to no avail.

Excellent shots Mikka. Crab spiders would be among my favourites, but strangely, they are very scarce around here this year, but we have plenty of flies. :lol: :lol:
Great stuff! I like he web on the flower bud in the first shot! Did you do anything to enhance it?
He seems..feisty. Still a creepy-crawley to me though! :DI dont think I have ever seen one, they look great….are they also known as Ghost spiders?
or am I dreaming that one up!Great shots, looks like he wasn’t too happy about being photographed – looks like he’s about to pounce! :)
Thanks all for taking time to look and comment. There seem to be lots of these around my area at the moment. I think the sticky silky web reflected the ring flash that I used.
