Tiny (2.5mm long) jumping spider. Possibly a pelegrina sp. though I can't find an exact match on bugguide. Its prey appears to be a small fly of some kind.
Meadow.
Jumping spiders have the extra-ordinary ability to jump more than 50 times their own length!

That was where I was already looking :)
Hehe Satyen! I've changed my tactics - I am now looking under leaves!
Awesome find! I guess I will start looking under stones too :)
Thanks Teresa!
Nice Jumping spider!
