Jumping Spider with Prey

Description:

Spotted this moth and jumping spider in my garden yesterday as I was watering the plants...and that jumping spider sure does jump quickly! Possible the moth is the same type I spotted several days ago: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/121... As for the spider, still unsure of species, but small body about 1 cm.




No species ID suggestions

Thanks everyone! @Maria - I should probably just wear the cam around my neck when I water the garden - it's when all our little critters come out! This spider took his time carrying the moth up the gate so I had plenty of time to run inside and grab the camera. :-)
