Beetling along
We had some bright sunshine today, for a while, which was pleasant after so much rain.
When I was out in the front garden, I noticed this little chap. At first, I thought it was a piece of coloured glass, glinting in the bright sun, but then it moved and started beetling along, quite rapidly for such a little thing.
Trying to identify it later, I decided it must have been a rose chafer, but it’s not supposed to be around until May, poor, confused creature.
It was a
perfect little jewel on legs.
