Escarabajo

In the depths of South America in the wild, untamed backyard of the Mackenzie family, I saw death flash before my eyes... or else great fame.... I discovered a....................beetle!  (Escarabajo).  The wicked curving horn wrought of insect shell threatened to stab the side of my foot exposed in my sandals.  I rapidly lifted my foot and pivoted away, a close encounter, but here I am alive and well, of course with a picture to document such an incredible discovery!!

After extensive research (also known as Wikipedia), my backyard companion was identified as Diloboderus Abderus.  Obviously macho was the only word to describe such a beetle his muscles were so defined.  The adventure shall continue as the backyard is explored and as I continue to delve into the unknown of Argentina!!
