So it's not exactly a bug butt, but I think this nicely framed spider butt fits with the spirit of the group - HBBBT!
There were quite a few of these very small spiders in the weeds. They move around quickly but this one paused long enough for me in a good spot...

Taken on Taack Road in True, here's a female Green Lynx Spider that I had interrupted while she was starting to construct a shelter in this Ashey Sunflower blossom. We had been cruising back roads north of Newcastle looking for patches of these sunflowers, a favorite of Green Lynx spiders, and many others. There was a stiff, gusty westerly wind blowing and blossoms were dancing around furiously. Any spiders aboard were getting a seriously bumpy ride. I had to use one hand to steady the blossom and work the camera with the other.
Here the spider is constructing her "hide" in a way that many Crab Spiders do... by folding over petals. The petals are anchored in position with strands of silk. Unlike a spider that I photographed earlier with my iPhone, this one objected to my attempt to hold the blossom steady and bolted for the back side of the blossom several times before I was able to get this image.

Have a nice day
Spottted cucumber beetles were abundant at the Tulsa Botanic Gardens, and this green lynx managed to snag one. For Arachtober 19...
This female was having her dinner ( it was a bee ) when she was spotted in our ficus tree. I wanted to get a better look at the feast and touched the leaf so she moves her position to the more appealing one. But that's not what happened. Poor mother dropped her meal in panic and ran to her precious sack with eggs and covered it with her body. I felt bad for being a source of such disturbance and tried to make it up to her. I picked the dropped bee and placed it 2 inches away. She did not touch it even 30 min after. It was yesterday evening.
The first thing I did in the morning is to go to the garden to check on her. She still covering her eggs and the bee is still 2 inch away and untouched.
As much as I want to make it up to her, I think it's best to leave her alone so she won't relocate with her sack.
Interesting info from
www.spiders.us/species/peucetia-viridans/
1. This spider does not spin a web for prey capture. Instead, it sits and waits for prey to come nearby and then pounces on it with lightning speed and agility.
2.This species eats any insect or other spider that it is able to catch.
3. Female Green Lynx Spiders are capable of changing their body color to adapt to their environment, but the change takes place over 16-17 days . The color change seems to be limited to various shades of green, brown, and reddish-purple or pink.
Lynx spiders are the members of the family Oxyopidae. They all are hunting spiders that spend their lives on plants, flowers and shrubs. At least one species has been identified as exhibiting social behaviour.
