p.1 #1 · Jumping spider

Don't expect to find jumping spiders out in the garden in November especially a Heliophanus species which I only rarely see. Walking about on an old plastic bread rack trying to do it's best to avoid me. About 5mm body length

Lovely shots. I'm almost afraid to ask what purpose an old bread rack serves in the garden. Other than as a prop for shooting jumpers, of course.

Thanks for the comments everybody

Kenny - Used to use it for transporting pot plants to school fund raisers, just not got round to throwing it out.

Interesting species.

Aesthetically enjoyable and well-illuminated photos of this difficult dark subject.

Reminds me a bit of a small jumper that literally chased me and my macro rig over 50 feet as it walked on a handrail adjacent to a walkway. I baked away a few more feet each 15-30 seconds, pausing to attempt a new photo at each brief stop. I finally gave up when I ran out of walkway! I could never figure out if it was just curious,if it saw me and my camera as a threat, or what.

Great looking jumper Brian. Are they usually so hairless on the back or this one showing some age?

Thanks again for the comments

Anthony - judging from other photos of the same family, eg below, I think they are fairly hairless, but I'd guess this is a fairly old specimen judging from the faded colours.
