Saw this beauty sitting on a flower pot, it let me get right up close with the camera. Never saw one like it before or since. I'd love to know it/he/she is.

Thanks!
Wow! Thanks, I thought I'd been through every page here but missed it. We do have a pine tree, good to know this guy is harmless.

Glad I finally joined the site! I'm a long-time lurker. You have no idea how many bugs have been saved because I looked them up here before freaking out.
