| | | Crab spider and prey. Not sure if there's enough visible for a positive ID, but I thought you might enjoy this shot of a crab spider ( I'm guessing Philodromus sp.) having lunch.

| | | Re: Crab spider and prey. This picture certainly tells a story! One of those to show to primary school kids, when learning about minibeasts. "How do you think this spider catches it's prey?" (The clue is in the picture children....i.e. no web = ambush.)
Good stuff, Gerel

| | | Re: Crab spider and prey. Not a Philodromus sp to my mind, though you're not going to get an ID from this shot (though push come to shove I'd say a Ozyptila sp)
