This came fluttering into my face at work yesterday.




It's an adult antlion if I'm not mistaken. (Am I mistaken, scientists?)



It calmed down when I gave it a stick to perch on.



Sorry I took so many pictures--all my life and I've never seen one before.



Apparently they're nocturnal, and on the right background they're pretty hard to see!

See this post for more on antlions.

Yep, that's an antlion! Not as fun to play with as the larval guys, but still nice to look at.
