Great camouflage! When glancing at the photos the first time, my eyes were drawn to the fly and I didn't notice the spider.

I am thinking it might be a Misumena vatia - Goldenrod Crab Spider, but could be wrong. I hope someone will correct me.

Are you keeping a life list of all your insects? I've started one just around home and I keep it to the natives. I haven't tried any of the ants or most flies yet.

No list, but names and classifications are saved in an image database.
