Crab spider eating a Hoverfly

My resident Crab spider is still doing well, she has a new prey almost every day, usually hoverflies. At this rate she will be huge by autumn.

As it was windy and overcast today, I shot this with the onboard flash, diffused, at 1/400s to cancel any motion blur.

Good of the crab to surround itself with such nice colours.
Excellent picture
