Had one on my shoulder last week. Thought it was a wolf spider at first. Hid it's legs tucked up just like this and buzzed hard when I tried to pick it up.

Edit: looks like it's an Eastern Eyed Click Beetle

TIL click beetle is a real group of beetles and not just something we called them where I grew up.

And they click real loud when they want to.

That fucking click haunts me like something from a horror movie
