Species ID? SW Washington state

Didn't see a perfect match on iNaturalist nearby. Maybe sub-adult Eris militaris?

Found this beautiful baby chasing ants in my backyard (Central IL)

They were very curious about my face and spent some time climbing on my hands and shirt. Anyone know the species?

Check out this beetle mimic jumping spider (found in KY)

She keeps her front two legs raised to look like mandibles or antenna. Jumping spiders are amazing.

Wild Spooder Dating?

Just saw 2 Spoods on Vacation in Greece, trying to mate i think. She ended up not wanting to.

But super happy i got to witness these cuteypatooties and capture them this good with my older phone. So cool to see these "in the wild".

Differences between white line regals

I have a breeder near me who is selling a few different colors of regal jumpers and I'm honestly a bit confused. Can someone explain the difference between North Florida White, Ghost, Apalachicola White and White Line?

I'm still pretty new to jumping spiders and I know they don't have morphs the way reptiles do, but is there any difference between these or are they just similar names for the same thing?

I have a beautiful little peach girl, but I would love a white girly too. I understand there's zero guarantee on them ending up that color and would love her regardless, but if I wanted a higher chance at getting something white, which of these lines should I go with?

Photos of my beautiful girl, Georgia, attached 🫶🏻

wild caught jumping spider

I just found a 7-legged, extremely sociable jumper and I'm unsure of how ethical it would be to keep it.

I recently lost my own pet jumper which means I have an enclosure and food already set up and ready and this jumper is such a sweetheart (currently sittim on my phone and looking down at the screen as I type this).

Would bringing it home be an advantage for it, especially seeing the missing leg, or would it just be cruel?

Met a friend yesterday while doing outdoor yoga

I was on my yoga mat on the grass when an emerald jumper joined me! She looked just like my girl that passed away earlier this year, and I was honored by her presence. She hung out with me for a few minutes before hopping back off into the grass. Namaste, little buddy!

Pashmina’s growth!

She has molted twice and gained more contrast with her colors! Honestly I wasn’t sure what to expect since she is my first jumper. I thought she would keep the brownish greys and orange but to my surprise she gained a lot more black and white with her recent molt

Sugar milk!!

My friends are on vacation so I’ve accepted babysitting duties for their baby. Nelly’s first time drinking sugar-milk (she refused to let go of the qtip for a very long time), perfect opportunity for a clear still shot.

first baby 💓

Just wanted to share my first bahama baby with those who will appreciate her. I own a few tarantulas but have always been afraid of spiders until i got them, so this little girl was the first spider ive touched during the unboxing process and it was such a wonderful experience she was so curious. Cant believe how stinkin cute she is.
