help me identify something
Last week
saw a couple of extraordinarily hot days for this part of the world, with
temperatures reaching 35 degrees and scorching sunshine.
It didn’t
last long.
Anyway,
along with this weather came some strange creatures. I saw the first hornet I’ve ever seen in
these parts and any number of insects filled the garden.
But one
creature left me baffled. I’ve looked on
the internet and in my book of British insects but I can’t identify a beetle I
found lurking on my patio the other day.
It was blackish brown and about 4cm long. At one stage I thought it was going to steal
my lunch. Luckily I had my camera at the
ready and got the following snaps. If
anyone knows what species of beetle it is, please enlighten me.
I have no idea what it is but.....eeeeeeewwwwwwww!!! :(
