I assume it was a bit underexposed judging by the noise?

Yes, the flash should have been set to a higher power.

Tried to get a second shot of him today, but he was MIA, replaced by a spider so tiny, it was about the same size as the gnats I've been shooting, MAYBE 1/8".

Maybe tomorrow...

Its better to increase to ISO400 and have a lower flash power ;)

Nice shot.

I shoot at ISO 400 with flash to improve the recycle time more than anything. Modern digital bodies are so low noise the improvement at 100 ISO is fairly minimal.
