Spotted this, probably a Jumping spider, with a lynx spider catch and was curiously yet precautionary-ly watching us/lens while having a good grip upon its precious catch

Nice image. Good details. I think this is Green Jumping Spider (Mopsus mormon). Probably a female as it has a white patch around the eyes. Thanks for sharing.

Interesting scene where a predator has become the prey. In the macro world, action happens non-stop. How often do we see a tiger or leopard catching its prey. However, predator-prey scenes can be seen if one is observant. How did you find this as they are below the leaf? Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,

Sir,this leaf was almost the eye level and saw some interesting movement around, that when I spotted this beauty and tried to keep up with its movement, sometime above the leaf sometimes below, like in this frame.
