Jumping Spider eating an Ant

Description:

This is the first mostly all black jumping spider I have seen. The angle wasn't that good and he was really low to the ground. He is eating an ant which really gives away his size which is about 5/8" long max!

Habitat:

Tropical dry forest in NW Costa Rica 8 weeks into the 6 month dry season.

Thanks Arun, still getting used shooting macro and trying to get some control and understanding of the bokeh! Glad you enjoyed the spotting.
