This is a Velvet Ant we found at a friends house yesterday. Nothing screams warning like a flaming red insect. She was huge and despite her name, she is a wingless wasp. We didn't know anything about this bug - none of us ha ever seen one. So off we went to our favorite entomology site
What's that bug? and were not very surprised to see she is very dangerous, but pretty. Here she is in all her warning glory. And go check out the What's that but site!
