Spanish Needle wildflowers (Bidens Pilosa) are popular hiding spots for crab spiders to ambush their preys. I saw 3 crab spiders with preys yesterday. This is one of them. I welcome you C & C for improvements.

Nice composition, good exposure on the white petals and fine detail of the spider and its prey!
