Salticus scenicus
A small Spider eating a Midge. These little spiders a so small. Approximately 4-5mm long. They have have striped abdomens. Some of these spiders are yellow and black and some of them are white and black. I see these little guys on a daily basis. They are quite speedy for their size.
They seem to like the back wall of the house. The sun usually shines on this wall.
@ ForestDragon. Thank you for the ID. ForestDragon. Yes they are very cute and great little jumpers.
Very cute Jumping Spider! This species is common in yards I think. I see them regularly here in NY. Yours looks like a female.
