They're also seen in upper Michigan... I had seen plenty of them in my parent's back yard before.. & we hadn't known what they were called.. Interesting name they have!

so I'd say their habitat range is quite big since this one was in Arizona! =]
Awesome shot! ^_^ & pardon my rambling! X'D

oh goodness. I have a couple of those pests that keep trying to break into our attic no matter what method we use.
Great shot, though! Considering they move around a lot xD

oohhh yes they're pests. I even went out there with a BB gun, and that still didn't keep them away. Ah well, I'm the one that intruded on them in the first place so I can't get too mad..

Ha, just go out with a camera and that should scare them off
