  2. So, that's what they are called! One landed on my head over the weekend and scared the &!"§$% out of me. After examining him closely, I saw he was a work of art.

    Love your photos, Bob :-)

  12. I am not good in insects, Bob, so I cannot help you with the species. But I think you are right. I looked it up on internet. Beautiful pictures of a weird insect. Greetings, Joke

  15. I've seen one of these similiar before....they can be stinky I think. Wish I could help on the ID but I'm terrible when it comes to most bugs and moths. They are a pistol to identify.
