This big guy was at the light last night.

I let him spend the night in Chez Cool-Whip, and gave him a little adventure in the fridge to slow him down this morning. I got a couple of shots before he got his bearings and scuttled off under the porch.

At least 2" long...not counting the antennae.

How about a Broad-necked Root Borer?
