The Big Guy has Escaped!

Morning. Day 7. Woke up with a sudden thought that all my scorpions had escaped. I rushed outside to check if they were in there. But what I had thought was true. Althogh not all were gone, the first and biggest one had escaped. The small ones were still in there. The 2nd one was as ok but I realised that the 3rd one had died. That leaves me with just one Scorpion left alive. I have no idea of what happened to the big one as it is no longer with me. I checked around my entire house but could not find it.
I decided to let the small guy go. Before releasing him into the deserted field far ahead of my house, I took a few shots of him. Here:

After releasing this little fellow I got back home and took various shots of the dead scorpion.

The Big Guy may have killed the one you found dead and then escaped. I noticed in the very first picture that in the bottom right-hand corner there is what seems to be a caterpillar. Two beautiful bugs in one day without trying!

Hey there Adina,

yeah, its true that the big one might have killed the smaller one. I just hope no one got stunk by it since I left them just outside my house.

And again yeah, sometimes you get to shoot two birds with one stone - without even noticing!
