Fantastic shot! I have only seen the remains of these critters after they have shed their skins. #1386125

Ours are "Kelly" green! But this is a handsome fellow, to be sure, especially after waiting for perhaps 17 years burrowed in the ground. You've made him look like he is clothed in diamond studded wings. Beautiful, Peaches. #9466012
