Seems so hard to find a pure bred military or scarlet macaw these days. Every time I see one, it's a hybrid of the two. As a teen I was paid to raise a military macaw from a hatchling. Even back then, they were getting so rare. Nice to see a true purebred military macaw again. Nice photo.

This is a Desert Horny Toad that I captured last time I visted Arizona.
I kept him for about 4 months before he passed from a gut impaction.
He was so cool. Miss you Wriggly.

Here is a female Pelecinid Wasp. They lay eggs inside Cicadas.

Do those sting if so it looks like it might hurt.

I imagine they would. I think they are moon jellyfish, so not really dangerous. Still really pretty.
I will have to go there when I get back from my vacation and get some better shots with my new camera.

I was thinking the last thing would hurt if it stung you. Is that a giant stinger on the back?! Do they sting? Never seen them before.
