Giant Water Bug, Outer Harbor by Lakewalk

The Giant Water Bug is among the largest insects in North America. Size was at least 3 inches long. They live around the edges of lakes where they trap air under their wings and dive for small fish and frogs. This mature adult probably overwintered in the mud.

Hear Original Local Music
A buddy of mine in Nashville set this website up to help local music all over: hereit.org. Use it to listen to, search for, buy and sell local music throughout the United States.
“The site helps listeners find and support new music, while providing independent artists a platform to be heard and sell songs – with no contracts, commitments or cuts taken from the sales.”
