I found this little guy crossing a gravel road.  I stopped, and he stopped, so I could take a few pictures.  He's got a couple of large
 headlights for eyes with four small ones underneath and two more larger ones on top of the carapace.  He was only one of a
handful of spiders I could locate this early in the year on Antelope Island.  © Carol Davis, 3-3-2009
