Blood-sucker - Triatoma sanguisuga

Blood-sucker - Triatoma sanguisuga
Fairfield, Wayne County, Illinois, USA
July 19, 2007
Attracted to my garage light - or was me standing next to the garage light?!?

LOL!
Were you lit up, too?:-) Triatoma are routinely attracted to lights at night during their brief dispersal periods. This is a very nice image of a spectacularly 'bright' specimen.
