Comments & ID Thoughts
I posted another picture yesterday and someone guessed Twin Jumping Spider.
It was hanging out on a bat or butterfly house that hadn’t been attached to a post or building yet. The wooden box was sitting on top of a retaining wall. The spider was on top of the box and tried to hide when I first approached, but after giving it space and coaxing it interacted with me and allowed me to get the photographs.

what a friendly little guy! he’s very fuzzy.
Definitely a type of jumping spider. The green mouthparts and white fuzz are a dead giveaway that this is a Bold Jumping Spider. They are super cute and pretty friendly. Very cool!
