Jumping spider (Eris)

Jumping spiders are my all-time favourites amongst the arachnids. Maybe it is those two huge eyes in the center of their face, so big you almost forget that they have a bunch of other tiny eyes! Or maybe it is their feisty personality. Whatever, it is, they are always special to see. This one is very tiny, about 4 mm, but some, like the black and rusty-red phidippus clarus, are very large.
