Uncharismatic Fact of the Day
With Chrysina limbata around, you won’t need a mirror! This species has an especially shiny exoskeleton, reflecting up to 97% of the light that hits it. In the wild, the mirror-like reflective surface may fool potential predators into thinking the beetle is just a drop of water- effectively serving as conspicuous camouflage.

If you like what I do, consider leaving a tip or buying me a ko-fi!

[VIDEO AND PHOTOS TAKEN: MARCH 21ST, 2024 | Video and Image IDs: A video and four photos of a brown and black bumble flower beetle attempting to hide amongst the brown leaf litter, slowly making its way under /End IDs.]
Before I saw it trying to get into the leaf pile, I saw this guy flying around a bit, and I definitely get why they call it a bumble flower beetle! The frequency of its flight buzz sounds very similar to that of a bumblebee!

It’s raining grubs!
This fat grub suddenly fell out of the log I was looking at!
He must’ve accidentally chewed his way to fresh air.
Unidentified, infraorder Scarabaeiformia

Bugs, beets, battle- wait no. I've been tinkering with scarab earrings and necklaces and have had a chance to list a piece. These set of earrings feature carved aventurine scarabs on a celestial winged scarab beetle caught in flight. Available only at Somewear in Tyme www.etsy.com/listing/1542500499

A miyama stag beetle, Lucanus maculifemoratus. Thank you @kirindensetsu for the photo reference!
#miyama stag beetle#Lucanus maculifemoratus#beetle art#scarab beetles#stag beetle#insect art#ink sketch#a pinchy boy#stag beetle my beloved#The beetle was missing one of his antennae which is why he only has one in this drawing#This is the first brush pen drawing I've done since I got my arm surgery#I think you can probably see me struggling to control my lines but also drawing with a brush pen is so fun and rewarding#I love and adore the little paws that scarab beetles tend to have#scarab beetles are as cute as little kittens it's just a fact I don't make the rules#クワガタムシ

All I’m saying, is that if I hadn’t read so many books about Egypt as a child, scarab beetles would have been far more traumatizing after watching “The Mummy”. I feel like most kids fact checked piranhas and quicksand. Like a kid’s survival guide.

Uncharismatic Fact of the Day
No one beats the Goliath beetle family when it comes to size, in terms of both length and weight. Males of the largest species can grow up to 11 cm (4.3 in) long and weigh over 50g (1.7), making them some of the largest insects on Earth.

Can finally show off the necklace I've been working on. This scarab piece features a carved black onyx head and an enamel jet accent. I adore how it came out along with how well the onyx and iolite look together.
Capture it and other bugs here www.etsy.com/listing/1533227710
