Went to my local Botanical garden and noticed this guy as I walked by the rose garden. I was looking for crab spiders but never seen one. Sun came out so I left.

Hi Dave,
It's South Coast botanical garden in Rolling Hills. I haven't seen an abundance of bugs there, but its great for birding. Send me a pm whenever you want to shoot.
