Fantastic

What an absolutely gorgeous spider. I've never seen anything like it. Thanks for posting her, it made my day!

Yes....

This spider is very beautiful. She is in the top part of a honeysuckle bush. I've been watching her since I found her and the babies finally emerged. I don't know if you've seen but I posted a pic of one of the babies here http://bugguide.net/node/view/153780/bgimage which is not a very good pic but the babies are tucked up under leaves and hard to get to.

I think that it is one of the Green Lynx spiders.
