Giant Desert Centipede

Took this as picture as this guy ran past me. Scared me at first was out looking for Western DBs and this guy shoots out and under my feet. Had the camera ready and managed to get this capture before he darted away.
Oh and picture is darn near actual size, it was about 6-7" long.

Nice pede :)

SWEET!!!! I saw one of those last April campin off of Lake Travis!!!

It ran across the trail.... I was on shock! Felt like a scene from Lost in Time...(?)

that a great shot ! and a cool bug too .

Those creep me out for some reason, because they move faster than should be possible...! Awesome colors on that one though, I can respect them, they have their niche.

Glad you all liked the pic of that guy.
