Them critters or Flower tales
So many cool flowers decided to bloom while I was in NJ. I took some pictures this morning and found another critter that I didn't see when I took the picture. These crab spiders love my yard and I find them everywhere in the flowers as they wait for something smaller than them to stumble into their web.

Just an arachnological note (after a brief google :) ) ... crab spiders are not web spinners. They are active prey hunters, and often sit motionless in the same spot for days before grabbing it and injecting it with their sharp, nasty, fangy thingies (probably not the correct arachnological term :) ).
Glad you had fun in NJ
