Camouflage

These tiny spiders sit very still on the flower until a bee lands
then they move like lightening to kill the bee.

Amazing capture, Sheile. The control and etail in the whites here is excellent.

Have you ever seen one capture a bee...soooo swift, the bee doesn't stand a chance...they feed off them until there's nothing but shell left.
Gorgeous shot
