Crab Spider with an abundance of prey

A Crab Spider preys on a Fairy Moth while beetles and flies browse nearby on Yarrow, Achillea millefolium.

There were several hiding spiders for every square foot of yarrow in this patch; Adela sp moths
thrive here and appear in large numbers every spring despite heavy predation by spiders.

Sierra Azul, lower trail.
