Annual Lubber Invasion!

Every year the late summer monsoon season brings a large number of Lubbers to roadways, trails, yards, etc. They can often be found climbing just about every plant in an area. The Plains Lubber (Brachystola magna) is among the more colorful of the various species and tends to have a nice blue hue to the top of it. Here is a large individual seen along the Mexico-Arizona border recently!
