Tiny Crab Spider

This spider was so small that I almost didn't see it on this beautiful flower. I am not familiar with what kind of spider it is. It is possibly a Green Crab Spider, which is found in Oregon. See: http://nature.mdc.mo.gov/…/field-gui…/foliage-flower-spiders

I learned an amazing fact about the Crab Spider. It can change color, depending on the flower it is on. White, yellow, green, pink and other colored crab spiders have been seen. The Crab Spider is also poisonous!
