I love jumping spiders though they are a bit small here in the Netherlands.
But they are excellent hunters.

They use small holes in the wall to build their hiding place in.

Erg mooi! Especially the brickhouses are an interesting new angle on photographing this type of critter!
Well done!

I had one (American variety) crawling on my bathroom mirror one day. Tried to capture it, but he kept jumping! I did actually get a couple of shots, but they are kinda soft. Interesting view, though!

Edwin, These are some very fine shots #2 and # are my favorites, #3 is one of the best I've seen in a while , not to close and give the viewer an idea about where they live . Excellent job on that one.
