Another fascinating little creature that I am about to show you is a tiny brown jumping spider pictures that I found outdoor. Actually, I meant to shoot the bee but by the time I spotted this little brown jumping spider and the bee seemed to be difficult to tame, I decided to take this spider as my macro subject. It's been a while, I did not see a spider outside of my house, and on that afternoon, I finally found this one hiding under the plant. The thing I love about a spider is the eyes, as well as the most difficult part to get so I attempt to seek a proper focus on its head by attaching extreme macro lens.
The jumping spider belongs to the family Salticidae, in the order Araneae.We sometimes found this small jumping spider wandering on plants in eucalypt forest. It is metallic brown in colour, with a small round button to heart shaped abdomen. There are some white marking on the abdomen. Its front pair of eyes are relatively small comparing with other jumping spiders. This jumping spider is often found hunting on leaves and stems of small plants.
Jumping spiders have some of the best vision among arthropods and use it in courtship, hunting, and navigation. Although they normally move unobtrusively and fairly slowly, most species are capable of very agile jumps, notably when hunting, but sometimes in response to sudden threats or crossing long gaps.source
