I love the pattern on this fast-walking beetle. Details at top right:

It landed on me while down on the beach. I did not see a match in a quick search of my Audubon Insect&Spiders app. Does anyone recognize it?

Another that landed was a shiny bronze beetle that looked to me like one of the Metallic Wood Boring Beetles. The camp is in an area of mxed woods. It was about 25mm long, pointed at both ends w/o obvious antennae. I have seen them before and someone may be able to take a guess from this description. Sorry I did not manage a picture.

Thanks, Nancy
