I found this giant scarab beetle outside my house last week, shortly after a freak summer rain.
This was not the first time I'd found horned scarabs outside my garden, but this particular beetle was probably the largest I've ever seen.
So heavy! The giant scarab compared to my hand. I think this is something of the genus Orcytes, perhaps even an O. nasicornis like the one I'd found before, only a female. Of course, one can never be too certain...
