No one at work can identify it as yet, can anyone here perhaps
help with identification? just for curiosity really.
Looks like a May bug.
I've googled for "May Bug" (now I know what to look for) and found
some info here;
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cockchaferinfo
and it
is indeed a May Bug.
Thanks very much, I can now tell them as work what it is called.
Stephen.
Ah I was going toi say 'cockchafer' but then everybody started saying
May Bug.
We used to call em JUNE bugs..
Hmm.
