He has some seriously bionic hip joints, doesn't he? Lovely shot of this almost frightening critter!

Oh yes, I recognise that 'scooterbeast', here in the field and our garden are a lot of them this year. What I love is, that it's color green is such shiny.

He's a new one to me. According to wikipedia, "In England, it is presently in a markedly expansive and consolidational phase, which commenced during 1995." Lovely capture! He's positioned perfectly to stand out against the white petals. Beautiful dof and composition.

It looks like, to use its common English name (that covers all of them not the species itself), its a bombardier bug or beetle.. But as to its actual name sorry.. But it has to be said mate this is one of your best shots yet! Well done. Rob
