I unearthed this baby today while rooting around the back yard.
If anyone can identify it I will appreciate knowing what type it is. I estimate it is about two inches long, including its legs.
Update: The best I have so far been able to determine it is a Mexican Redrump Tarantula, but I'm still looking.

YUUUUUUK!!!!!
Wouldn't want the creepn around at night.....
As soon as I unearthed the furry beast it took off running away from the disturbance. If it is in fact a Mexican Redrump, they live in burrows in the ground so I don’t think I’ll be encountering one in the house. Mexican Redrumps, according to what I’ve read, have been know to kill and eat birds, as have a number of other types of tarantulas.
