A velvet ant?

Pretty, but oh, so painful. Funny...I know people like that.

Amazing aren't they? The velvet ant of course, not the people who take after them.

I am a big geek and usually on the look out for odd bugs and I go years between velvet ant sightings so she was a real treat to find (the easy way, with my eyes, not my nervous system). Even though I know her capacity for causing harm, I had to release her.

Do you see many where you are?

I grew up on a ranch in Texas. We had lots of the critters. More of the drab green color, rather than the pretty red color.

Sad to say, they don't live here in Michigan. :( Not that I want to get stung by one, but they make great subjects for macrophotography.
