Dancing desert tarantula

[Texas Blonde]

I found this mature male Aphonopelma sp a couple nights ago on a road near our ranch. I was amazed he was still alive. The males started walking way back in June, and I havent seen one in couple weeks. They dont generally last long in the wild.

Lots of pics, I know. But he was just so good at posing, lol.
