Re: PESO - Beetle on a Leaf

[Daniel J. Matyola]

It is indeed a Japanese Beetle, the scourge of anyone who loves roses,
hibiscus and other flowering plants.  in addition to the beetles
devastating our flowers and shrubs, their grubs destroy lawns.  Nasty
little bugs.

That is, however, a fine image.

After photographing, I recommend you crush it between your thumb and 
forefinger. That produces a satisfying crackling sound and saves a tree.

Nice photo but as noted, a destructive beetle! Good practice nonetheless.

Another alien species and quite a destructive one apparently.

Uninspired title.

Have no idea what type of beetle this is - how many million species of
beetles are there? He's about twice the size of a lady bug. I rather
liked the iridescence (which I suspect would be spectacular in the
sun) and the little white tufts on his sides:
