7-6 Black Nightshade, Goldenrod Crab Spider

7-6 Woods and waste places are home to Black Nightshade, so called because it will eventually produce black berries.
A female Goldenrod Crab Spider (the males are tiny in comparison) proves herself a formidable ambush hunter. Prey as large as bumble bees and butterflies are on her menu. John
