Crab Spider on Goldenrod


It was so disappointing to find that almost all the wildflowers were finished when I drove west of the city on Elbow Falls Trail on August 29th. A few Goldenrod and Asters (or were they Fleabane?) remained. However, I was happy to get a decent enough photo of this very tiny Crab Spider. They are common spiders, but so easily missed because of their tiny size. Females can grow up to 10 mm (excluding legs); males reach 5 mm at most. Macro photo taken near the parking lot at Ing's Mine.
