This little guy was flailing about on his back thick with mites. Two paint brushes, pair of scissors and a dental pick later... he was off!
what is he?
I recognised these mites from bumble bees to...ack. I nearly missed the mites without my glasses.

Did you watch that movie a Bug's Life ?? Every time I see a beetle I think how it has such a long journey to get to from point A to B...
Comment by Helen Nock on October 28, 2012 at 10:44 Thanks Tanya :) I wonder what he is doing in an urban garden. Maybe he likes the wild composty bits!?
Comment by Tanya Batkin on October 27, 2012 at 18:34 Wow great job.
Think it might be Geotrupes stercorarius or Dor Beetle and like nothing better than a tasty cow pat as its a Dung Beetle.
