Green Lynx Spider guarding her egg sac

This is a mama Green Lynx Spider (Peucetia, Oxyopidae) guarding her egg sac in a flowering plant of native Prickly-Phlox (Leptodactylon californicum, Polemoniaceae) in the woods today. This is the first one I've seen this year tending eggs. (San Marcos Pass, 15 August 2022)
