Another of my favorite spider shots. This red-backed jumping spider (Phidippus johnsoni) was collected in my backyard, along with a male and a red-phase female of the same species, in spring of 2010, which was a legendary spidering year.
Jumping spiders are my favorite. The way they move just makes me giggle for some reason. I also love how you can get them to chase a laser pointer sometimes.
