Field Notes

Description:

Shot this female after a break in the rains. Very fierce and bold jumping spider which never hesitates to prey on many other species of spiders. About 15mm size.

Habitat:

Spotted on a damp wall.

Notes:

This is my 400th spotting. I live in the middle of a busy city and majority of my spottings are from inside a small plot of land where I live. Never even dreamed of finding so many of different critters so close to my home. Thank you projectnoah for helping me re kindle my lost interest in nature.
