Marpissa muscosa en cours d'accouplement, avec le bulbe copulateur du mâle visible.

Alors que je me dirigeais vers une palissade en bois ensoleillée, justement dans l'espoir d'y voir des saltiques dont Marpissa muscosa, je suis tombé sur ces deux là tranquillement installés sur la rambarde en bois.
Ce qui s'est avéré bien pratique pour l'observation qui a finalement duré 50 minutes, me faisant établir un nouveau record personnel de lenteur de marche.

Marpissa muscosa mating, with the male's copulatory bulb visible.

As I was heading towards a sunny wooden fence, hoping to spot jumping spiders, including Marpissa muscosa, I came across these two, comfortably perched on the wooden railing.
This proved quite convenient for observation, which ultimately lasted 50 minutes, setting a new personal record for slowest walking.

This group of baby jumping spiders is doing great so far. It's been a bit of a distraction watching them stalk and catch fruit flies, but 🤷‍♂️. #spiders #jumpingspiders #arachnids #spidersofmastodon #SpidersOfTheFediverse

Little Spider in a Big, Wet World
While I love nearly every bug, Bold Jumping Spiders are on what must be a very short list of small bitey things that are downright cute. This particular fella is not looking bold at the moment. I freed him from my car, but alas, he appeared much happier in those dry confines than in the raindrops. After taking his photo I found him some nice shelter in an old woodpile. He may return to my car when he assumes some responsibility for the monthly payments.

Woodlouse spider on the hunt. A ground dweller, she makes no web, but prowls all night, looking for sowbugs. Arachtober 2025, Day 12. flickr.com/photos/wanderin_wee #Arachtober2025 #Arachnids #JumpingSpiders #Spiders #Arañas #Invertebrates

A good-sized spider, patrolling the floor inside a house. Each main part of her body comes in a different colour, plain, with no design. Her cepahlothorax (head and thorax), including the large fangs, is a deep wine-red. The abdomen is light greyish brown (others may have creamy yellow or grey abdomens). And the legs are a warm medium brown. 
We know she's female because her palps (brown like the legs) are narrow; the males have "boxing-glove" palps.)
Looking closely, you may see the ridges circling the top of the abdomen, and the shape of the cephalothorax, with a raised section in front, and a flatter, round base.

Zebra stripes. On a Zebra spider, of course. These spiders love my car. Arachtober 2025, Day 11. flickr.com/photos/wanderin_wee #Arachtober2025 #Arachnids #JumpingSpiders #Spiders #Arañas #Invertebrates

A black and white jumping spider, back to the camera, on a car door. The spider has three white stripes on each side of his abdomen, stripes on the legs, and a patch on the cephalothorax (head) that looks sort of like a cat's face with whiter ears. The spider's eyes on the top of the cephalothorax are black on black, and the others are visible only as blacker lumps on the front.
He's on a silvery-grey car, glittery, by the edge of the window,  black.
