I found him at my local park.

I thought it was a smashed walnut and then I saw the legs.

He is very dead but even though smashed very huge!!

I was shocked that we have bugs that big in Kentucky.

Nick you are the wind beneath my wings! Could not have done it without you as I didn't know how.

So I plugging in my cheapo camera tonight and tomorrow will take some pics and post some stuff !!

Yay!!

 
Wow awesome coloring! I actually think it's Dynastes granti cuz it's large size and olive coloring.

 
No I looked again and the coloring is actually closer to the Eastern.

The Dynastes has more of a gray color to it.

This is more olive and dark.
