Arcturan Drone

weird insect  in Taos, NM

Of all the gin joints in the world, you had to end up here

I have no idea what this is. About one and a half inches long, hanging on the screen door. It did eventually fly away, but not because I stuck an iPhone in its face. The leaving was voluntary. I wondered if a mothership had called it back and if it even was organic.

      Hi, Mike! Yeah, that’s what I thought, too. Same dead end trying to pin it down.
