[OC] A little jumping spider.

I remember when I was trying to take this photo the spider jumped on the lens and I might have screamed.

Aww, jumping spiders are spider bros. They are surprisingly smart. Them and wolf spiders get free roam of my house and garden.

They are so smart. You can keep jumping spiders as pets and they exhibit social behaviors with humans, even ones in the wild are able to learn specific people and will just chill with you.

I like to befriend them and let them play by jumping around my fingers.
