Blending in

ID: Lynx spider

One of the best example of blending into the surroundings, this thorny guy had positioned itself right in the middle of the twig of a dried plant, making it almost impossible to spot it, especially with its leg bristles feeling to the be the part of the thorny characteristics of the plant. May be the best way to camouflage itself for an unsuspecting morning prey that might move along the dried plant.

Agree the legs look like a twig with thorns :). Good details. Nicely captured. Thanks for sharing.
