Ground crab spider (Xysticus)

Ferguson Forest

Although the land is still snow-covered, there were a few south facing slopes where snow had melted away leaving leaf litter exposed. There were many small spiders running around on the litter including this one.

Very nice. Even spiders are hard to find this time of year.

I am sure it is harmless but they still creep me out.
