Cockchafer
Common cockchafer, also referred to as the May bug, the Spang beetle or the Billy witch. These beetles usually appear around late April – early May and can frequently be seen and heard flying into lit windows and even lamps .
Which is what has been happening the last couple of last call visits to the garden before Badger goes to bed! The stunned ones I have been removing from harms way until they recover so thought it was a macro opportunity. Not easy as the moment they start to recover they are to quick to capture with extension tubes!
Managed to gets the dogs walked on a very busy canal before the heavy showers returned complete with added hail....... we do desperately need it.
Off to try and get Saturdays album out before this week gets to silly. Take care one and all ;~)
