RE: Cult: Yellow Spider -Hope helpful

They are also known as crab spiders because of their shape.  They like to hide in flowers and pounce on insects.  I have a phobia of all spiders, but those curdle my gizzard a little less than others.  I got one me while weeding a few days ago and managed to shake it off without my neighbors hearing me like they must have last night when I found a big wolf spider on my back porch.

I don't know what their real name is, but we call them Hunter spiders. They catch their prey by blending in on the flowers. Ours don't have the black on them that yours does. They can also be white.

Some of you enjoy the colorful other things I find in my yard.

This tiny thing was the exact color of the yellow marigolds he/she was living on.

I'll see if it is attracted next spring to yellow iris also.   

 

I'm sure someone will know it's name.
