  • Yes! It's legs and body are almost transparent, and similar in shape to the beautiful petals. Do you suppose insects so good at disguise are happy and laughing all the time at what they cleverly manage to pull off. What a delight! Inside an orchid and no one the wiser! Beautious orchid, too. You're better than the Sunday NYTimes crossword puzzle.

  • Yikes! That is one well camouflaged spider! Definitely couldn't have found him if not for the 2nd shot!

  • Yay! Barbara... you had sent me these pictures, and I'm so glad you've shared it more broadly. Your vision is wonderful.
