The day my flower fell apart

You might expect that a crab spider has an easy life.  After all, it should be able to sit back on its flower and relax, basking in the sun, until its food delivers itself.  However, for the young crab spider featured in this video, just staying on the flower is a struggle. 

~Spoilers~

Although larger crab spiders can catch honey bees and bumble bees, this one is still too small to attract their notice.  As the bees focus on gathering nectar, they trample on their future predator, sending it scrambling for cover.  Over the course of an hour, the bees even manage to pull all the petals off the flower, leaving the spider barely hanging on.
