A Jumper With A Fly

Have I mentioned before that I think jumping spiders are some of the most fascinating creatures on the planet? I was out shooting for @pappa-pepper's combination photo contest when I ran across this little guy feeding on a fly that was at least as big as it was! It amazes me that a spider can be fast enough to catch a fly! I took the opportunity to get a few photos.

With The Proof


* All photos taken by me using Canon Rebel T3; Lens Model: EF-S18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II. Macro shots were taken using a cheap screw on macro adapter; post processing performed using Darktable unless otherwise labeled.
