On a look out for the catch

ID: Crab Spider

Spotted this beauty perched on top of a bunch of flowers and all set for catching a morning prey. The angle and posture almost made it look like an athlete in a crouched position ready to jump off. The beauty also was almost well blended in to the surrounding of pale flowers

Good details. Agree it is quite nicely camouflaged with the flowers. Thanks for sharing.

Not easy to spot this. It would have been better to have more space at the bottom than at the top. What is the dark patch at the right? Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Not sure about the black patch, probably just darkness as no light go reflected...
