American carrion beetles, which carry the unfortunate name of Necrophila americana! These were hard to get photos of, between how active they were and how much the rabbit carcass they were likely looking to lay some eggs in was stinking :P

Was confused as to why this little thing didn't hop away—unfortunately it didn't have its back legs :(

The funny thing about lubber grasshoppers is that you can just do this if you feel like it (note: the beast was swiftly placed back down on a plant that wasn't in the garden)
