Spiders and Flowers

in r2cornell •  last year 

Hello everyone.
While taking photos of flowers on my visit to forest last time I noticed something very interesting.
I took photo of beautiful chamomile flower and saw other chamomile flower with some of its petals closed. And then I noticed spider behind or hiding in the petals. Most probably spider is waiting for the food - some insect that will come to the flower.
It was very interesting to see it hunting on the flower. After this while taking more photos of other flowers I saw more spiders on the flowers in same way.
Couple years back I saw and took photos of spider hunting on the sunflower but it was surprise to see couple of them. I will share sunflower photo on the end.

Now lets start with first spider and its flower.
