zebra jumping spider

Salticus scenicus

Description:

Using 4 pairs of eyes to locate it's prey, the zebra jumping spider does not build a web. The female is larger and lighter in color

Notes:

At first she was afraid of my lens coming so close, but then she saw her reflection and began attacking the lens, jumping onto it. I got several good photos between jumps
