Another bonus shot where my focus was on the bumblebee feeding on late- flowering boneset blooms and overlooked the bright green spider moving in on the next meal. Probably a female, considering the size, it is considered a beneficial spider since it eats many insect pests, although it also devours the helpful species indiscriminately. It was my first view so I was happy to identify this colorful spider.
