Unidentified spider.jpg

Mornington Sanctuary, Western Australia

This little spider was waiting hopefully for something to come along in the Mackennar Valley on Mornington Sanctuary.
It didn't get a helpless insect, it got a huge (relatively) photographer with a big camera..

Not sure of the exact species or genus, not being from Australia (but the genus might be possible to determine) the family is Oxyopidae, the Lynx Spiders.

BTW...Absolutely FANTASTIC Photos.....Love the ant-mimic Salticids (Jumping Spiders).
