The everyday of our family farm
I haven't seen a Christmas beetle in years. Thanks for the reminder.
How appropriate.Alphie
I guess they got their name for a good reason. Nice close up.
Oh I remember these flying into the house in their hundreds after rain .. we had no screens and the doors and windows wide open to beat the heat.
There is no hurry.Beautiful picture!Greeting
Interesting.I am interested in knowing why it is called a Christmas beetle.I have never heard of something like that before.
So called because these beetles are abundant around Christmas time.
Fantastic photograph.All the best Jan
