Hi Little Friend ! πŸ‘‹πŸ•·οΈ

I made a new friend today! A super tiny jumping spider:

Just look at those sexy eyes 😍



Surprisingly, it was very "tame" and friendly. I almost touched it with my phone lens to get these two close ups πŸ˜‚

Maybe it was just curious dunno, eventually it got jumpy and run away to do whatever spiders do.

This is the last photo I took of it

Thanks to google lens I quickly found it belongs to the Phlegra genus. Species is possibly Phlegra bresnieri.

it occurs in southern Europe up to Azerbaijan, in Ivory Coast, and in Tanzania. Much like must jumping spiders, adults are small at about 4–5 millimetres (0.16–0.20 in) of length.

Feel free to visit Wikipedia if you'd like to read more on them!

I wish I had more photos to share but everything else came out really blurry!

So here's a video instead from YouTube πŸ˜„



Ok friends, this is it for today!

See you soon with more critters 😁

Jumping spiders... they look so peaceful and friendly, until they jump onto your face and insert their pincers into your eyeball and their little legs squirm around and fluids are flying and the spider is squealing saying "eeeeeeeek" while you swat at your face, grab a leg and try to pull him off and he just won't let go...

I don't like spiders that jump.

It's nice to see that its peaceful, but I don't like spiders enough to get close enough to it.

You finally met spider man!!! Lols.

Surprisingly, it was very "tame" and friendly. Maybe confident to jump up when it feel like and it sure did.
Spiders are wonderful creatures, they help keep environment bug free only that they replace them with their web, something that outdates a place.

That video had some finale...he's (she's?) running around with that poor critter in the mouth. Chomping away, nonchalantly, looking for the next meal.

Cute spider, but bad news for some critters out thereπŸ˜…

A somewhat unusual friend, better to distance yourself a little, maybe the spider is not looking for friendship hahaha
