A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Project Noah Nature School
Anuroctonus pococki
There were 5 of this species along a 1/2 mile path at night. It is a stout-looking scorpion compared to other species I had seen. I was leading a group of young citizen scientists to a lit area for insect collecting-identification-release. The thorax, stinger and pincers are bulbous.

iPhone spotting
I do too! Luckily one of the guests had a black light that we were able to use on the hike :)
