Jumper On the House
May 5, 2015 21:55:57 #
We don't seem to have many of these-- or perhaps it's still too chilly. Yesterday as I was taking out the recycling, I noticed this little guy. First time I've seen one with a meal. It was about 5mm long-- so I don't know if that is small for a jumper-or not.
I missed the focus a bit, but I was holding the rig over my head & trying to frame using live view.
I'd still like to find some in a natural environment.

Gauging from this Jumper's lunch (winged Aphid), I'd guess in the 5-7mm range. If this is a type of Wall Jumper, it is in it's natural environment. I wish mine would venture off of the Stucco and onto something nicer.
Nice shots!:thumbup:

Once he began to run away, I tried to corral him with my hand away from the post. He scurried into the crevice between two siding boards. He took his lunch along.:thumbup: Looks like he's using chop sticks. :-)

Thanks Allen, yes we have been here for over a week now but finding a house to buy is proving difficult in this area as all the prices here have gone up so much whereas they went down in Spain, also the euro/sterling exchange has been unfortunate for us. I will get back to macro soon I hope.Thanks, Brenda. It looks like you've made the move. Hope all is going well.

Oh, didn't think of the housing prices. That's unfortunate. We sold and bought about 3-4 years ago. It was a bad time to sell and a good time to buy--so figure it for a wash. Good luck. I'll be curious what you find for macro in the new environment.Thanks Allen, yes we have been here for over a week now but finding a house to buy is proving difficult in this area as all the prices here have gone up so much whereas they went down in Spain, also the euro/sterling exchange has been unfortunate for us.
