I am a male Regal Jumping Spider
My mate is much larger than I
If you saw her, you'd be screamin'
But for really no reason
As for me? You would just pass me by.

Note: Regal Jumping Spiders are harmless to humans, but the females are pretty big and can look scary if you don't know that!

Location: WW Ranch Road, St. Sebastian River Preserve State Park, Sebastian
