Tiny little jumping spider, probably being a bit optimistic waiting for the mason bees to fly in.
Bee tube and the silver painted step down ring on the end of the lens make for cool catchlights though.
Two different crops of the same shot.

You can see how close I had to get the lens to the end of the nesting tube. Had to contort the flash a bit to get any light at all down there.
Not seen any males of this species before, very different from the female

this hopper nymph is only about 2-3mm.

Finally got a decent pic of one of these. Only got two shots total before it flew off again though, so not great.
