I love seeing these Six-spotted Tiger Beetles (Cicindela sexguttata). Their metallic bright green or blue-green color is such a treat. Those six spots that their common name is from, that’s a bit misleading, there are not always six, sometimes none, sometimes as many as eight.

These Tiger Beetles are about 1/2 inch long. They eat many kinds of insects and other arthropods.

Mighty easy to spot with their bright color!
