Today was quite tiring, since morning I have been going to the garden to plant chilies, planting chilies is a job that is quite complicated and boring because we have to plant them one by one, moreover this job is done 90% manually, by hiring some other workers it will make this job a little easier and faster to finish.
During the day, precisely when we were resting, I suddenly managed to find a spider hiding behind the leaves.

I myself don't know the name of this spider, but what is certain is that this spider is a type of jumping spider. This spider doesn't live in its nest like most web spiders. This spider lives behind leaves and looks for prey by pouncing, and it looks very brutal if we have the chance to see it directly.

The uniqueness of this spider can be seen in its body coloration. This spider has several colors on its body, which looks shiny and beautiful. However, this spider is very small and very difficult to photograph with just a cellphone camera. Using a macro lens is the right choice for maximum results and visible detail.
