This guy was trying to hitch a ride back to the mainland in my camera bag. Luckily i had time to change lense to the sigma 105mm before he slinked away.

This full body shot might help someone ID the beastie.

I don't know the species, but with those big eyes high up - could this be some kind of jumping spider?
Cheers
Steffen.

Willy - cool shot
Steffan you're right - it is a member of the Salticidae family, or jumping spiders ... but as to what species
Way too many spiders that are undiscribed, and from TI - not a hope in hell for this little bunny
Wicked mohawk on him though

Nice work! That first pic would make a great illustration for a kids book!
