Un-be-WEEVIL-ble
Beth and I were running some errands today. While we were getting into the car, Beth said, "Look at this!" Assuming it was a dent from some not-so-careful driver, I rushed over. Fortunately, it was nothing like that at all. Instead, it was this REALLY cool weevil. I've narrowed it down to the genus Curculio - the nut and acorn weevils. I snapped a few pics. Only one came out clear, but you can see the antennae fastened to the rostrum ("beak") of the weevil which, to me, gives these guys an "other-worldly" appearance.
Here's one more (blurry) pic:

That's a wierd one.
Looks cool!
About how big is this weevil? just curious.
About an inch long, maybe a tiny bit more.
Yikes!
