If you get a bunch in your yard, they eat everything. When they are young they are black. I have used them to catch fish. If you get a bunch eating your plants, you can hear them chewing. They are an unwelcome pest.

A lubber! I used to see them around my yard all the time about 10 years ago.

This one has beautiful colors. Taken in Florida, I rarely see them.


Great shot!
