He landed on my balcony

This beetle is unlikely to make a mistake with another.It's Trichodes apiarius. Its bright coloration is visible from afar. Already a few years ago, I photographed him in the garden, and this time landed on noim balcony. Unfortunately, this beetle is a pest for bee keepers. He can nest in a hive and cause damage, and there also the easiest apiary you encounter it.

and the butterflies are still little

For quite a long time we had windy weather, but after the rains there was a period beautiful almost windless weather. My short trip to the forest to capture insects too was successful. I have not encountered too many of them. I made a few photos, but not much. At this point in previous years there were a lot of butterflies, moths and other insects. Here are the fruits of my trip.

me new insect- Lesser stag beetle (Dorcus parallelipipedus)

     This time the insect showed me a wife, who was sitting on the wall of our house. I took my camera and I went out to photograph. He was still there. I made a few pictures, and then I moved it to the plant and also photographed. This is the Lesser stag beetle( Dorcus parallelipipedus) a species of stag beetle found in Europe. I am very glad, because I did not have it yet in my collection.

the afternoon excursion to the river

The late afternoon is a good time for taking photos of insects, if weather isn't bad.The butterlies, the beetles and other insects aren't so active as in midday and you can easily take a picture.It's true that lightis quite poor but with tripod it's taking of photos no problem.These photos were taken almost in 8.00 p.m.
