Tarantula - Aphonopelma hentzi - Male
Highway 17, Jeff Davis County, Texas, USA
October 1, 2016
While driving back to the campground from Marfa around sunset, we stopped to admire a herd of pronghorn in a field not too far away. A fellow arachnology student spotted this handsome male crossing the highway a short distance in front of the van.

Talk about being in the right place at the right time!
