Not sure what to hashtag with this question, but is there anyone out there who knows anything about #spiders / #arachnids #arachnology? This guy has been in my yard for a couple of days and I was curious what it is, and if my dog and I should keep our distance.

“Occasionally, there are things happening that I can only explain with the theory of them having a nightmare,” Rößler says. They’ll be peacefully dangling, legs curled in neatly, when suddenly “all the legs get extended at the same time, like aah!”
I’m sorry, this is way too precious!!! 😭 #spiders #spooders #arachnids

Was out tidying around the HVAC unit today and came upon a new-to-me teeny critter!
Luckily I had my camera handy, so discovered this quick little spidey, which I think is a male Pike Slender Jumper (Marpissa pikei)? I've never seen a jumping spider like this one. How wonderful!
Please zoom in to see the wee fella. He didn't let me get a second shot.

Newbie photgraphy continues!
Mama wolf spider with her egg case resting on the side of a water trough. And a paper wasp (Guinea, I think?) taking a break floating in the same trough. Early evening. August 2023 Central Texas.
