This jumping spider had its eye on the planthopper, but it already had its mouth full with an ant. It kept eying it, but finally hopped to a different leaf.

Thanks Neil! I really would have liked to see if it could take it. It wasn't much bigger at all. It kept looking at it, turning around, and looking at it again. I was beginning to wonder if it wasn't going to drop the ant and go for it:)
Great spotting. Lucky planthopper!
