Those are some serious fangs Rik. Where'd you find that thing at?
I used to think of jumpers as being docile little spiders with a lot of personality. Not any more, they are now once again on my list! Nice photographs of the critter Rik.

Ken, I thought you'd like this alternative view of the little tykes.
Jumping spiders are great fun -- I like them a lot. It's just that I've also spent some time looking at them under magnification, and, uh, they do clearly come with weaponry!
This one was climbing up my bathroom wall. I usually find them in the raspberries. So after I convinced the spider to cooperate in a formal portrait session, a raspberry leaf seemed a suitable backdrop.
