Six Spotted Tiger Beetle - Bugs and Beetles in Sutton Massachusetts
Tiger beetles come in a huge variety of shapes, sizes and colors. The one we saw in Sutton, Massachusetts was a beautiful irridescent green color. It is called a six spotted tiger beetle even though to me it seems to have eight spots! This is known as Cicindela sexguttata. Click on any of the green images below to get a larger version!

Here's one from May 2011 from the Blackstone National Golf Course.
