Field Notes

Description:

Spotted in our wild-ish frontyard full of random plants. I really love jumping spiders, they are so cute. I don't know the ID of this little fella, nor can I even start guessing. Help would be great.

Notes:

If I spot it again tomorrow I will try to get some more ID friendly pictures. Today was really windy and it was sitting on a palm leaf that was swaying all over the place so these two pictures were the only ones I got in focus.
