Description


Hi there. Today a small longhorn beetle on a bloom. They love to drink nectar from flowers - some of the big ones also do. This guy was about 11mm long and I liked the little hairs on his back. I think it could be Corymbia hybrida - but I'm not sure about this. Have a great day.

Very sharp macro- great capture! Looks like the beetle has some company on the flower below him.
