This is my entry for the daily #monomad challenge

At around 16.30 I was in the bushes hunting for some interesting macro objects. But I couldn't take many photos because the weather was getting cloudy and it was starting to drizzle. Luckily, I was able to find a male Oxyopes salticus spider behind the leaves.

"Oxyopes salticus is a species of spider belonging to the Oxyopidae family. This species is also part of the genus Oxyopes and the order Araneae". Wikipedia

The Oxyopes salticus spider that I am sharing is male, photographing it is more difficult than photographing female Oxyopes salticus. The female is more docile, especially when she is guarding her egg nest, the female Oxyopes doesn't want to move away from her egg nest. Even though the male Oxyopes is quite wild, I managed to photograph him perfectly and I think some of the photos are worthy of joining today's #monomad challenge. And I have uploaded some photos of the Oxyopes salticus spider that I mean below, here are some photos:
