ID: Jumping spider feeding on Termite?

Came across a patch with huge stock pile of dried leaves like a dry brown carpet. Surprisingly the whole area was filled with a whole lot of jumping spiders, of varying sizes, and almost all of them seemed to be feeding on, what seemed to be like, termites, again of various sizes. This was one of the beauty devouring on a huge catch and was seen astonished with the lens popping towards it, almost giving a curious pose.

Good details. The eyes have come out well. Looks like it has caught a termite (?). Is there something else behind the termite? Thanks for sharing.
