I posted a spider last month....was this the same kind. I don't remember the color on the head like this but the eyes and face are the same. Very tiny spider.

Excellent shot!!!!

  Hello Robert:
Your “Apache Jumper” is amazing, the mouth looks lethal. The spider is so vivid that you could count his hairs. Is this spider part of our California desert dwellers? Very interesting and popular part of the WEYG club gallery. Great work!

  Thanks for the comments.

Merna ... I found this one in Wilcox, Arizona, but it has a very wide distribution range from California to Florida.
