The life of spiders on plants.

If you are a spider, then you have only one lesson - to be a hunter. And if you are an experienced hunter then you will always be full. Especially if you hunt flowers.
Bees become especially frequent prey of flower spiders Misumena vatia.

In some countries, spiders Misumena vatia are called robots.
In their livelihood, with their powerful forelegs spread apart, they resemble robots.
They differ in their coloring and size, depending on the flowers on which they live.

In most cases, the victim is much larger than the spider itself. This gives the spider the ability to store food for a long time and think about offspring.

It turns out that Wolf spider produces two streams of web at once, although I always thought that they had a stream.

And this female Wolf spider cares about her offspring. She constantly keeps the cocoon in her jaws while remaining hungry until hatching offspring. Truly a real mother.

The web of the spider is truly a manifestation of high skill and diligence. But when the work is finished - it remains only to wait for the lunch itself to arrive.

Thanks @grildrig for sharing. Spiders are air-breathing arthropods that have eight legs and chelicerae with fangs that inject venom.

Yes, their diversity is truly unlimited.
Great role, ha ha :)
Thanks!

upped @grildrig, nice shots and good post! Thank you

Thanks my friend!

I'm no fan of spiders but your photos gave me a different perspective of them. I didn't know that spiders actually take on preys that are bigger than them and have the intelligence to store food. Thanks for the enlightening post and nice photos :)

amazing photos, upvoted

I love the pictures! So cool that first one with the bug🐞 and the spiders are cool but I'm very scared of them!
