So here’s the Red Lily Beetle, found whilst walking through grassland….
So…a fact or two about these beetles:
1) They emit a high pitched squeak when they are disturbed!!!!
2) The larvae cover themselves in excrement as they feed-yeuch!
Moving on!
The other critter who was posing in the evening light on some lovely blossom…..
That’s All!
See Ya xx
Rover looks scary, how big is it? I would love to hear him squeak.
I guess he’s nearly a centimetre long and I don’t know how loud his squeak is!!! π
The beetle’s pretty, but definitely sounds like it needs to work on its inappropriate behavior. π
I have to agree with you! Rude yet pretty little beetle!! π
