Arachnophobes look away now...
What a cute little spider you are! Photographed on our Verbena where we normally photograph flying insects. We have never seen one prior to this sighting yesterday.
In our attempt to get a better photograph it fell off... "You horrible humans, it took me ages to climb to the top of that plant..."
The Goldenrod spider is a member of the Crab Spider family, you can see the resemblance!
It may be small but if you look on the Royal Albert Museum link there is a photograph of it eating a honey bee... It is obviously not that cute!!
