Camera Critters-July 23, 2011

Does anyone know the name of this guy?
I've seen these critters often around here , and I'm sure they are some type of 'ant' or a relative... but I don't know their name. They are quite colorful and showy but I don't want to get too close to them!
One other fact about them is that I have never seen more than one of these 'ants' at any given time!
(all other ants I've seen have lots of 'friends' with them!)
:) ...So that's kind of intriguing to me! I need to find out about these 'ants' or whatever they may be!
This is my cat, 'The General,' posing by the concrete ball topper where I recently photographed the above critter!
Happy Critter Watching!

Great cat pic. Bugs aren't my fave. :)
This looks like a cow ant and I always steer clear of them.
Pretty to look at though.
Great pics! It looks like one I've heard called a Cow Killer. It is suppose to have a rather nasty bite.
The General is very handsome.
Wow! Just this last week, I went out to turn the water on and right under the stone by the faucet was the SAME bug! I had NO idea what it was but it was beautifully colored red and black! Looked JUST like this one!
Learn something everyday! Thanks for the heads up Junie!

Very nice photos of unknown bug and "The General". He is very handsome :)
Regards!
Yhat's the common red and black bug June... glad to help.
I have not seen this bug, from the other comments it does not sound like a good bug. Great photos!
Yes, we always called it a cow killer, I hear they have a painful sting, but they are beautiful.
