Found him/her upside down in the band room. I scooped him up and let him crawl around on a table while I snapped a few. He is out side now happily looking for well, dung.

Very nice! I always say "better a Dung beetle, then Beetle Dung!"

I have never seen one like that!
Very good details of that beetle!

It was about the size of a golf ball. One of the biggest bugs I've ever seen. Moved like a turtle.
