This is day 1139 of my daily photo journal.
I have photographed a variety of Stinkbugs during this time but I have never seen such a beautiful one! The greens and blues blend so well. 
A closer look reveals a prominent second set of 'eyes' - giving the insect quit a comical look!

When I moved a piece of wood that had been eaten by ants, I probably disturbed this guy's nest.
Whip Spider or Scorpion Spider or Tailless Whip Scorpion. Order Amblypygi
Amblypygi are carnivorous and are usually nocturnal hunters
So called because of the very long 'whips' that it waves around when it feels threatened.
I have seen very dull brown ones but never one as brightly coloured as this guy.
