We have moths here that look almost exactly like bumblebees. I saw one fly into a Trumpet Vine Flower. I pinched the flower closed and plucked it. I could hear the moth buzzing inside and when I saw a stinger come out of the flower and go into my thumb. It was no moth. I remember yelling for quite a while.

It's too bad that the Red Ants are being crowded out by Fire Ants. Red Ant mounds are a great place to use up Black Cat fire crackers.
The real shame is the complete disappearance of the Horned Toad East of I35. They were a lot of fun to play with and very plentiful when I was a kid. Now they are considered to be endangered and it is illegal to have one.
The gene-splicers need to get busy and develop a Horned Toad that eats Fire Ants.

Back in the day when my folks were living in Curacao and my brother was going to boarding school, he was assigned a H/W project on his vacation. He had to remove all the flesh off an animal, and then connect all the bones back together, put the thing on a stand and present it to his biology teacher.
Well, my brother didn't quite want to do the h/w so we came up with an ingenious plan. We shot an iguana, placed the dead lizard on the sand in the blazing heat, not far from an ant hill.
Two days later, we went back and gents... it was picked clean and the sun did a perfect job of bleaching the bones lol. We got some crazy glue and glued all the joints, wired it to a piece of wood, and then packaged it for the long trip back!
Wish I had a picture for you guys... He got highest grade by the way lol. Ants are cool!David
