Nice shot.
In case you're wondering, the species is Hentzia grenada
and similar to the Zebra Jumpers, those huge fangs indicate this is a male.

But look those adorable teddy-bear eyes. We all know he wouldn't hurt a fly...

There are lots of bugs on the picnic table where I eat lunch, but the ONLY thing I have seen a jumping spider eat is another smaller jumping spider
