Backyard Creepy Crawly Pics

Found these two guys hanging out under the patio furniture today, took pictures before they got torched with BBQ lighter.

And one I’ve never seen before, after a little research it seems to be bold jumping spider (Phidippus audax), great markings.

    I saw one of those bold jumping spiders in my backyard the other day. I had never seen one before and I was amazed to see how fast and how far those things could jump.
