Even the flies seemed scarce today. I did manage to shoot 2 different spiders. One is a jumper and the other, um, not sure I am not having a lot of luck ID'ing him.
Both spiders VERY small and, interestingly enough, both spiders shot within 2 feet of each other on my vinyl siding. Hopefully because they are so small, not the greatest pics I have ever posted but the first spider is new to me so maybe interesting enough to post.
Very nice shots!! The spider in the first two images is a money spider isn't it? The jumper reminds me of Elton John for some reason, maybe the haircut and the large sunnies.
I am not good at precise measurements. small. like, maybe if it spread it's legs out and lay flat it would be about the circumferences of a thumbtack. maybe a bit smaller.
Money spiders are a subgroup of the Linyphiidae with few abdominal markings. The males are recognisable by specific shapes of the head around the eyes and the arrangment of the eyes. Yours is a female and the chances of recognition from a photograph is poor, unless a specialist takes a look.
