RE: Toad Tuesday? Ok! (Original Photography)
Those beetles are invading everywhere! Worse, they stink if you squish them... They are kind of cool looking, though.
That road was such a good sport. They tend to hold really still, even though they have to know they've been spotted. I thought about grabbing him and putting him on the brim of my hat, so he could feast on the mosquitos attacking me, but I figured he'd just dive off and injure himself.
Lol, you got a good idea there...tie about 6 toads by the legs around your hat and voila! flys be-gone!
I have to agree, where else do you see a bug with trident horns. I think with the nasty stink when bugs get stomped on is like a last hoorah. In Florida, I spotted a stick bug, which is uber cool cause it looks like a stick with legs. As my friend was in motion to stomp on the stick bug, I was saying nooooo (cause I had never seen one)my friend couldn't stop his motion and squished the stick bug. It took maybe .3 of a second and we all scattered to the 4 winds cause holy hell...stick bugs stink too when you stomp on them!!
