Hi sesquipedalian.words, please can you also add the scientific name in the correct box in edit as this is the field that we use to link similar spottings & generate scientific data. Thanks!
Becca is correct - this is a wheel bug (Arilus cristatus). Now that it's been identified, please take a few minutes to fill in some of the ID and information fields. Also, since this is an insect, it can be moved to the Arthropods category. Thanks!
