Jumpy

Marina Steyn12 Apr 2021Cheerful

Jumpy this is really unfair. You gave me such an enormous scare. My camera identified you as a cat. Tiny creature sitting on my hat. Your multiple eyes watching me. I wonder what you actually see. The hairy body black and white. I almost took off in flight. Inquisitively I took a closer look. Enquiring from a spider book. Named jumping spider I see. Kind of cute, yet most will disagree. Harmless to humans they say.

Pleading us to let you live let you stay

You help us destroy mozzies and flies.

Quite an important job for your size. My life changed by this information. Now I need some motivation, I have decided not to kill, but to leave you on my window sill.
