Misumena vatia. the golden rod crab-spider. @Tempus_Fugit@lemmy.world just recently shared one of those!
You should take it outside (they like flowers, especially with white or yellow petals). They do not fare well inside. They don't make nests, sis was just lost :)

I love these spiders. I'm a simple man, going from flower to flower looking for them is a common pastime of mine.

My inner tent is bright yellow. I think it felt right at home. I kinly moved it to the bushes though

When you see fields of flowers with one or more insects on them...this spider's got the right idea.

Beautiful crab spider! Thanks for sharing, and for relocating them to safety 🕷🖤
