also known as the unicorn beetle, or the Eastern Hercules Beetle. Thought to be the heaviest beetle in North America. This one is as large as my thumb.

I have no dragonfly ID skills at all---- but I am happy with this capture. I am still working on getting better macro shots with the P900. This one works for me.

Thanks to stddts for the ID-- 12 spotted skimmer :)
