Yeah!!! Zebra Jumping Spider - Salticus Scenicus !!!

[hoftwi]

Saw it inside the brushes and tried to move the front branch in order to get my lens close to it but not to disturb it. So I used my left hand to hold a branch and only right hand with my gear That really was very heavy for me but for the sake of the good shots, I used all my strength to hold it steady and took a few shots, not the best but I tried my best

Always worth doing anything you can to get shots of these cute spiders.

Thanks Alf and Chris I was so happy that I could take some shots of this cute little thing, but I hope I can do better next time and see a different one.

It was all well worth the effort Icy, the first two are very nice indeed with the third shot only let down a tad by the composition.

Thanks Rhod But not sir, is madam I got lucky with it that it didn't get away as fast as they normally do, at least it allowed me for a few shots
