Thank you very much, my friend. They live in most of North America all the south to Colombia, but not the other side of the Atlantic. Best wishes for the weekend.

What a great specimen. Since we moved here I have not seen one. Stoney Creek Metropark had many.

Thank you, Dörthe. It sounds like you must be near the northern edge of their range. I think it had only recently emerged and had not suffered much damage.
