Red flat bark beetle (Cucujus clavipes)

Reveler Conservation Area

I have long wanted to see this beetle species and today, while sitting in my car after a hike around the conservation area, this one flew in the window and landed next to me. What a beauty! I didn't have to look too hard for it after all, as it came to me instead.

Wonderful angle! it helps me to have a tilting lcd to capture angles like this! My knees aren't as cooperative as they were when I was younger. (They cooperate when I'm bending down, but become obstinate when I'm trying to get up!)
