Found this beetle clinging to a stalk of grass in Larose Forest. He seemed to be looking straight at me, which was kind of interesting :-)

As you can see I've been trawling through some of your fascinating galleries. Love this one for the interesting lines created by the little beetle and the stalk, ... not to mention the expression on the subject's face. V

You caught him "red handed" with his face in the pollen jar! Cute shot Christine! V
