This is the earliest I have ever encountered one of these, thought I would share it.
The photo isn't amazing but hopefully it's good enough.

As a courtesy to other site visitors...
...please be sure to crop your pics so the bug fills the frame, as requested on the submission form. Only you and the editors/experts have the ability to click on the image and see the full size version. Everyone else is stuck looking at a little bug in a lot of unnecessary background. :)
You can click on "edit" and simply upload a cropped version. It will replace the current image.
Thanks!
