Description
July 12th, 2014Went outside to release my Phidippus Audax (had him in "captivity" for about a week, feeding him flies) only to run into another cool species of jumper in the garden, Phidippus Putnami. Smaller than Audax, but much faster too. Took this shot of him on my finger for a scale reference. As you can see, most of the spiders I shoot are no bigger than your fingernail
Got some better "portrait" shots but chose this more behind-the-scenes type shot as my "photo of the day" since I shoot these guys quite a bit during the summer months

Jumping spiders are the cute and cuddly spiders in the family.ย I'd rather see one of those critters than the big tarantulas or orb weavers who look like they'd melt your legs off with their bite.ย Good shot!

Yeah, jumping spiders are certainly the most personable. They even have different personalities
