Critter of the week

 

I was going to title this post "bug of the week", but knew someone would give me grief for being technically incorrect.  I then figured I could title it "insect of the week", but that wasn't any better.  I could title it "arachnid of the week", but then most people wouldn't understand.  That said, I shall title this post, "Critter of the week", and hopefully everyone will be happy.  To help gauge the size, this tarantula is in the bottom of a 3 liter jug.  He was at least 3 inches across.  We found him hanging on a curtain in the living room.
