Family: Cicindelidae - Tiger Beetles
Date: 7.03.15
Observation:
This unfortunate tiger beetle was stuck in our kiddie pool, but was liberated shortly after the photo was taken when the pool was emptied. Alice took charge of identifying the beetle with the help of Michelle.
A Fact from Michelle:
Females place eggs singly in holes along paths in the woods and adults emerge in summer.
