Yesterday this thing came in and fluttered around the light. Anybody know what kind of insect this is? It's quite large - I would guess about 8 - 10 cm including antennae. I think I've found the name: Ophion ventricosus (correct me if I'm wrong)

Female Common Whitetail

I was trying to take some shots of the lady bugs on our peach tree, but they would not hold still! We have green ones and orange ones and I really want some pictures of them darn it! This guy decided to pose for me though, not as sharp as I would like so I went the artsy route...besides, he started it by doing the origami thing with the leaf :) He looks a bit grumpy or put out that I got in his face. Love the Anti-Smile LOL!
