Only the jumping ones

The jumping ones are great friends

We should do a rebranding campaign. Rebrand "jumping spiders" as "hugging spiders."

I had a jumping spider end up inside in a small container that had seeds in it moments prior, I popped the lid on so I could finish planting before releasing him outside (yes I was gardening inside - it was brisk outdoors ok) and watching him in there was so interesting.

I got my camera out and took some videos and pictures of him and after assessing his situation in the container and realising he was trapped for the time being, he started taking in the greater surroundings and looking at me and the camera, it was wild. Jumping spiders are so cool! Such inquisitive little guys.
