Referring to the catfish. I have a separate observation for the snake.
Can't tell if this is a Madtom or a bullhead. Going with Bullhead for now based on similar observations, but open to suggestions.

Common Raccoon (Procyon lotor)Observer
oddfitzDescription
Had spotted a white bundle of fur in a tree and after a time spent studying determined it was a Raccoon with either Albinism or Leucism. It shifted a few times over a couple of hours and finally when I had nearly given up, it briefly opened it's eyes. Which confirmed this as an Albino, as Leucism does not impact eye pigment.
@sambiology @mchlfx @wildcarrot I went looking for @jblinde Siren's but got distracted obviously. Has anyone mentioned seeing this animal at LLELA?

Long-tailed Giant Ichneumonid Wasp (Megarhyssa macrurus ssp. macrurus)Observer
claggyDescription
I can't say I was expecting my first giant ichneumon to be one that has lost its ovipositor! I wonder if this one got attacked by a bird or something while it was depositing eggs, since it's so vulnerable during that time. Appears to be missing half a wing as well.
34-35mm not counting the remains of the ovipositor
