This guy was hanging around my shop this morning and the bug made the mistake of gettin to close.
Looks like his eyes are bigger than his stomach.

Loc: Athens, Georgia
Great shots. I have yet to find a big guy with these beautiful green chelicerae. Maybe one of these days............
Thanks for looking JRB,gym,this is the first one I've seen this year.
a bold jumper,with a wasp.those little guys are tough.good find.nice shots.
Thanks Tom,he's still running around my shop.
Nice Capture, never seen them eat a wasp..
Nicely done. Question ?? Does the eye configuration change with the jumper types? I noticed Geffs spiders eyes are quite distinct from yours.? :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
