Kid's Meal, Pt. 5 - _TNY_6204
A fifth shot of this tiny juvenile jumping spider which has caught some sort of mosquito. It's most likely a Sitticus terebratus, but since ID'ing juveniles is a bit tricky it might be a Sittipub pubescens instead.
Either way, it was just 2.5 mm long (less than .1") so I had to break out the Canon MP-E65 and shoot this at 4.3:1 magnification (and crop the shot even further afterwards).
