The Strand -- Just One More! [View all]

This is a cropped view from one of the photos I posted earlier today. I spotted this insect near the top right of the photo and wanted to highlight it. No idea what it is!

It was taken with my 100--400mm lens.

Thanks so much, my dear Hermit-The-Prog! It is interesting to look at, for sure. ♥ nt CaliforniaPeggy Oct 2023 #2

It looks angry. I wouldn't want to tangle with it. FuzzyRabbit Oct 2023 #3

It does give that impression! I didn't even see it when I took the photo. CaliforniaPeggy Oct 2023 #5
