Bronzed Tiger Beetle
And now for something different... a couple of days ago I was out at Confluence State Park-- the point where the Mississippi and Missouri rivers come together. Right at the tip where the rivers meet, there were quite a few of these beetles in the sand. They are a bit drab from a distance, but the patterns and colors become apparent when you look closely. Very cool little beetles!
