Field Notes

Description:

Found on a wild garlic's drumstick (Allium amethystinum). Since I could see it stayed still in the same place for at least one hour.
The other day it was not there anymore ...

Habitat:

The last photo, if was not the meadow where our spider was found, could be a Van Gogh's painting.
