Not John, Paul, George and Ringo but a handsome looking group of Beetles nonetheless.
Various encounters with members of the order Coleoptera we photographed over the last couple of months.
Diverse adapted and ready for whatever is thrown their way. Beetle species number over 400,000 and a large number are probable still to be discovered.
Beetlemaina…catch it.
Hehe, great title, Mike. Beetles certainly are diverse – I love the metallic ones best, esp. the emerald green spotted tiger beetles that scoot around my deck.
HI Eliza, there seems to be no limit to the diversity of beetles hanging around. It just takes noticing which for the smaller things does take time and a god eye.
Top boy is most impressive , they are all great and important in the grand scheme of things.
Those are indeed some serious antennae.
Nice shots…
