Jewel beetle
Isnt this spectacular, they are really stink beetles but this blue job was electric in his color. Most of them were orange like the one behind the blue one.
They are harlequin bugs Penny, the orange ones are the females and the males are the gorgeous electric colours. We have them in the Gardens all the time, the children all love them. Cheers, Robin
My gosh this is beautiful! How could such a beautiful creature have such an awful name "stink beetle"? Your new name for him is the best "jewel beetle".
