Mother nature provides for all sorts of disguises and camouflage. But I'm not sure what this spiny orb weaver spider (or crab spider, to those of you in Florida ) is trying to pull off. Maybe those red spines are just a way of differentiating itself from all of the other spiders. Arachnid fashion?
Thanks for the photo, Sean.

Looks like a pretty flower?
That could work, if they tend to spin their webs near flowers. Pretty is pushing it, though ... :)
