Brown Beetle

Few days ago, a hiker pointed at an old tree stump stool.
Our human's eyes followed and quickly snapped its photo with a finger for comparison.
It is the first time our human saw this brown beetle and later google searched the image.
The name that cropped up in bug guide was 'Genus Anomala'.

It is lovely that folks are so mindful and aware when out walking. So good that you have your camera to hand.
Sharing nature is sharing love.

Hmmm... that looks very like a Melolontha Pectoralis, though that is considered a European beetle - doesn't mean they don't exist your way... just as insects from the east are now appearing in the west. International travel and trade! YAM xx

What cute little beetle. And how nice that the other hiker pointed it out to your human. :)
