Large black beetle? Can you help Identify?
Hi,
My children and I have found a large black beetle on our deck and don’t know if he fell out of the tree or flew to get there, but found it very interesting. They are very interested in finding out what type of bug he is, so can you help us. I am sending some pictures of him to help you out.

This is a Scarab Beetle, probably the genus Strategus.
