Assasin Bug

Here's the bug that I described on the phone yesterday.   It was crawling up the side of the house just as happy and ugly as can be.

Last year was the first time I ever saw one of these on our deck, and that one was small.  This one was HUGE.

Here's a video of an "Assassin bug vs a Bat" .
