I love how they will go after prey so much larger than themselves.

Ambitious little fellow. Nice detail on the eyes.

I love jumping spider eyes! :3

Nice shots! Love those little guys. I never kill them and enjoy watching them roam the house all summer. Then I find all sorts of cob-webs in the winter from their little safety threads.

I love it! Looks like maybe a Phiddipus audax.

Very, very nice . . .

Such big prey for such a small spider. I like the third photo, very nice macros.
