Coleoptera
A very large beetle.
On the ground near Lena's setup.
Looks like it had pincers. Was inside a very hot stairwell with open access to outside
Hardwood stump borer beetle, found deceased and missing a leg in some leaf litter near a stock tank pond
Mating pair of large black/dark red beetles found in a swimming pool.
There is also a bizarre story about how these two bugs are seemingly immortal but I am unsure if it is appropriate for iNat.
