Took a mini vacation with the RV to a State Park in Tennessee and scouted the woods with camera in hand so I'll have a few to post later.

This is one of the hoards of red ants that were around the campsite which I convinced one to come home with me for a photo session. It and a few other spent there time in an empty pill bottle filled with Tito's Vodka (had to put them in something).

Thanks in advance to all who view and for your comments, suggestions and critique.

Very nice! I do suggest that for the next camping trip that you hang up a lantern in front of a white sheet at night. you are practically guaranteed to get insects that are new. And lots of 'em.

Mark...I got a "Monster Beetle" that had gotten inside the motorhome (I assume when the door was open bringing dogs in and out at night). Ellen found it on the steps and called to me to come get it before she gives it the "Mexican Hat Dance".

Staging it is tomorrow's project and I will truly need help identifying it for it is truly 'big and strange'.

I stored it in a pill bottle filled with vodka. Perhaps it looks like it has a hangover so, "Oh what a night!"
