Yesterday evening, when I was in my garden, watering the plants, I saw, about 5 small butterflies flying in circles around the jasmine vine. When I went to take a closer look, I saw a jumping spider munching on this sweet little creature. My first instinct was to try save the butterfly, but then I thought, the spider needs to live too. And also, the butterfly was almost dead. [ Probably the spider injected its venom, I am not sure about that].

Quite a mouthful! Great capture!
I have changed 'spider' to jumping spider. Thank you, once again Jemma.
Thank you Jemma. From the other spottings I saw in the Spider missions, I also think it is a jumping spider. But, I am not sure.
Very thoughtful Namitha.Looks like this is a jumping spider too!
