ID: Lynx spider

A usual find in any of the society or local gardens, the daisy flowers, seen a huge variety of colours, tend to be magnet for a variety of insects, like butterflies, beetles, etc and within them predators in form of crab and lynx spiders tend to blend themselves very well to catch the inattentive prey. One such example, though not necessarily blending in, was this instance where the lynx seemed to bask on the top of the flower, almost like a warrior keeping itself ready for attack. Have seen and documented few instances where they successfully catch few bees or tiny butterflies and moths, and enjoying the feast

It has positioned himslef nicely on a vantage point :). The low angle helps in this composition. Nice capture. Thanks for sharing.

Nice to see it in the open. The low angle makes it interesting. Moving slightly to the right would have been even better. Depth of field in such short distances is always a challenge. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
