Unintentionally picked up a hitchhiker on the way home from dinner tonight....
 
Came out of the Walmart one time to find this Lorax-looking caterpillar hanging on to my car door.

The BigHair said to take it off and put it in the grass

I said "no... if dude can hang on until we get home, it'd be an honor to give him a ride"

Little effer was a credit to his species, he was still there

If you see a shiny, black, slow-flying wasp with a disproportionately long abdomen crawling on your lawn in late July, August or September, you should shout for joy. It is North America’s one species of pelecinid wasp, and it is a parasitoid – an insect with larvae that complete their development at the expense of a single host organism that is killed in the process. Using her long, flexible abdomen the female pelecinid wasp lays her eggs in June beetle larvae (which are busy consuming plant roots beneath your lawn). These eggs will hatch into wasp larvae that will devour their host, thereby decreasing next year’s June beetle infestation.
