This is a jumping spider.
Its head reminds me a little bit of the alien from Mars Attacks.
This is quite a close-up photo, in reality it was about the size of a 1p/10cent piece.
Still, when you are staring at a huge image of a spider through the viewfinder and it abruptly JUMPS AROUND THE LEAF... well, I shrieked like a little girl and nearly dropped the camera.
