Description
Hi ~ thanks for swingin' by! :)
I was going through my picture folders here on my computer and came across this Asian Beetle I thought looked kinda neat sitting there on a leaf. There are soooo many of these things around here; for the past few years, it's been just terrible. They completely cover every corner of the rooms in peoples homes, and when you open a window, they rain down on you and when you open a door -- down they come. It's bad. Don't know who's idea it was to ship 'em on over here; they do nothing but annoy people and fill our vacume bags weekly. Sounds mean, I know .. but it's that bad.
Of course seeing just ONE isn't bad. :)
Thanks again for viewing and for any comments you may have.
Have a terrific Sunday! :)

G'day. Im amazed you have plagues of them. Were lucky to get just one in our garden. Lady bugs are good luck here. They eat the aphids off of the roses. Excellent close up shot.

What do you say now, 'they do nothing but annoy people'? Uh uh... They eat LICE! Unfortunately your part of the world seems to be a bit more crowded with them but perhaps the amounts of lice will be far less than here! Beautiful capture of your buggy annoyer! :)

Beautiful capture of this macro! Excellent photograph!

great frame and focus on that one! Can even see the tuniest hairs and reflections in the shiny carapace. The yellowish ones were bad in Indiana two years ago and they would emit a stink when you squashed 'em, which was hard not to do! I was happy to visit and then happy to return. Not so many this year, guess they ate up all the lice!
