Misumena vatia is a species of crab spider in North America, where it is the largest and best-known flower spider..
F/14, 1/15th, ISO 800. Early this morning in shade.
My wife says it looks like it has a "doll" face, ergo the title..Like that Aerosmith song too Smile

Eye popping saturation with details to match. Especially love how that little spider appears to have two eyes and a pill box hat. Excellent macro.
