Terry Beeson Posted June 14, 2007 Posted June 14, 2007 I just went out for some fresh air (OK... I went out for a smoke) and encountered something I have not seen before. On a window screen down the walkway going to the parking lot, I saw several moths and then one "bug" that caught my eye. It was "white sand" colored (very light beige) and in a perfect T shape. The body was about 3/4 inch long and the same length was at the top of the T. I caught him and looked at him on my finger, but he flew off and over my head before I could tell if the "T" part was wing or some sort of antennae. The body and "wing" were both about the diameter of a pencil lead. Any of you "bug" experts know what I'm talking about? Wish I had taken my cell phone and got a picture of him...

jdmidwest Posted June 15, 2007 Posted June 15, 2007 Judging from the vague description, it was probably the adult form of some nymph like creature. Did it say anything to you? If not, it was probably not Jimminie Cricket or any of its cousins. I would eliminate any of the V shaped species because of the T shape. I hope this helps. Cheers!
