have seeded my yard with these cuties, hoping they will produce many offspring
That last one seems to be calling you Mommy!
Thanks for sharing, Napabob. I find nothing to be as sweet as your clutch of baby jumpers.
That’s quite a large brood you’re overseeing - have you seen a spike in your grocery bill?
It's so reassuring to find that you indeed care about these little spiders. So many others seem to harbor the need to step on them.
Look forward to more of your posts.

Napabob,
I'm intrigued that you observed this and mention it here. I've also noticed on several occasions when I magnified the spider's image on live-view to manually focus on its eyes, the tinier group of eyes actually move in a rolling fashion. I thought maybe something from within the eye was showing through the translucent eye surface, but now that you brought it up, I believe the spider's tiny eye was rolling. Amazing what one can find through macro. The more I peer close-up at these tiny critters, the more I appreciate their being photo subjects.
