Who’s got big eyes???
This fellow is colored like zebra and it has big, beautifull eyes – and what a handsome face too! Salticus scenicus is supposed to be the name of the ‘game’ – as I was in the role of the hunter this time and he got the role of the game ^.^ IRL this species is known to jump into it’s prey.
I think this one is a keeper. What say ya?
Quite coincidentally, last night on telly I saw a program on these jumping spiders. I have to say, they must be the absolutely cutest spiders I have ever seen and the photo is fabulous!
Thanks Minna, appreciate your comment! I have been watching spiders more closely this spring and noticed that they aren’t that ugly after all. Yes, this species might be one of the cutest of them all!
HAHAHA!!! How surprisingly cute!
I love his perky, alert expression.
Lovely spidery energy in this.
