From the plant to my hand
While I was at home, I spent some time checking on some of the plants that I have in the small garden in the yard. I love them especially when they grow healthy, and then I also love them as they attract some of the insects or spiders to come and check the place so that I could have some subject to photograph.
That day, before I water the garden, I noticed a very small jumping spider from the Cosmophasis family, walking around on the tip of the hibiscus flower in the garden. I then took my camera out and tried to photograph this little guy.
I took one shot of this spider while it was on the plant, but it quickly moved to the underside of the leaves. I need to turn the flower to be able to photograph it, and then what it did what it did the best, which is jumping.
It jumped into my hand, running into my arm, before heading back into my palm. It settled down a little bit in the palm of my hand when I was finally able to take a few photos of this beautiful little spider on my fingers.
I really love the eyes of the spider and also the color pattern on its body. so beautiful.
I let it go back to the hibiscus plant after I took the photo, so that he can continue to be the guard of my house from flies or mosquitoes. : )
