I was leaning my bike up against a cement wall when I detected the tiniest movement. This male zebra jumper (Salticus scenicus*), all of 4mm long, took my presence as a threat and was dancing to and fro and waving his folding pedipalps at me.

Notice also that there are some very small orange lichens on the wall, which I completely missed in situ, but they show up nicely in the pictures.
