Life of a tiny crab spider must be really hard. Waiting all day for that one juicy bee to come close enough to catch it... then a battle to hold it... and then in the end she ditches anyway.
I went to look at the pink flowers that just bloomed on one of the billion shrubs mum has in a garden and saw a bee doing some strange moves. Only after I got really close I notice that this tiny white spider was holding her. Those white ones seem to love the garden. I see them hunting on many flowers, but usually white, so they are basically invisible. Is he colorblind?
I took a few shots and after I finished the bee managed to free herself and flew away. No supper today for the little guy.

Very beautiful photos!
I like spiders and I understand that they have to eat, but I feel very sorry for the bees, it’s good that she was saved.
Let the spider eat aphid and ants :-))
Haha he got greedy. Nice big, fatty be is better than tiny aphids :p
