Thank you Cindy, Lars and Juan for the ID, tx Carol for liking it.

The abdomen looks a bit too heavy for what I know of lynx spiders - but I may be totally wrong

Type of Lynx spider? I'm out of town & on my phone so I can't look it up now but it's a start.
Carol Snow Milne
Yes, 3rd photo although the 2nd photo is the best macro. ALL GOOD! This is a cool spider! Very unusual head.
LarsKorb
Yep, that's what i would suggest, Sergio (but they're all great)
Sergio Monteiro
Thank you Lars. Do you mean I should put the third photo as first one?
