Description
Hi there.
Today another little creature (my favored models I think *g*). This is a Cicindela campestris - a big hunter. The beetle is about 10-15mm long and a very fast one.
This nice guy flown by as we walk across the garden exhibition in my birthtown. He sat down on a towel and let me take some shots. They often fly away, if you come to look on them, but this one sat there and looks like he takes a sunbath.
Such a lucky hunter I was.
Have a great day and thanks for stopping by to take a look.
