Jumping spider / mettalic gold - Oxyopes salticus
Manteca, San joaquin County, California, USA

Size: 1 cm
I really like jumping spiders , but have never seen one jump so high . I did not think that he could swivel his head like the Johnsons Jumper spider can to look at you , but he is still cute . I would appreciate any help in his identity which would add to my newbie knowledge , thanks so much , Beth
