Longhorn

[MarkB1]

Long-horn … after their long antennae, a sense organ they use to detect their world.

It stopped long enough for a few shots, maneuverable for different backgrounds.

A kind of beetle rarely seen in the garden, with its unusual colour.

Then, without warning, it took to the air and was gone.

Interesting to see the same insect against the different backgrounds. I prefer the first one.
