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

Agree with Lars I think is a lynx spider, it still has some different dimensions

This one is a female and could be gravid.

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.

Yes, 3rd photo although the 2nd photo is the best macro. ALL GOOD! This is a cool spider! Very unusual head.
