The spider having its meal

I am very pleased with this shot

A high quality shot of the ant mimic crab spider striking a pose

The ant mimic crab spider is a fascinating creature.I won't get tired looking for it and capturing it on camera.This shy little creature which is roughly the size of a peanut can be found in garden areas
where there are plenty of flowers.The ant mimic feeds on ants and its a spectacle to watch it hunt.So far, the only place where there is a large population of the ant mimic crab spider is at
Taman Rimba Kiara.To capture the spider, you would need a 1:1 macro lens and an extension tube.
