Spider on a Leaf

While looking at a plant a couple of days ago I noticed a spider I had not seen before. I tried to get some photos but the little dickens kept going to the other side of the plant so I only got his legs and fat belly. The other spider I noticed later was sitting on the underside of a leaf. The 2nd and 3rd photos are of him. He appears to be eating something as big as him in the 3rd photo.

Your first spider is most likely a crab spider.
Based on the 'hips' visible in second image, your next spider may be a very young Jewel Araneus Orb Weaver (Araneus gemma).
