This Soldier or Bonking Beetle can’t be thinking what I think it’s contemplating. The Ringlet Butterfly (Aphantopus hyperantus) didn’t wait to find out. Very wise of it. The beetle found something it’s own size. Here we go again. There are hundreds of these. Rhagonycha fulva. Little wonder, they are always at it. It is difficult to find one on it’s own. These tiny creatures are not far behind. I assumed they were flying ants but they are, as usual something else. I think it is a Lesser Dung Fly one of the Sepsidae. Sepsis fulgeus I’ll settle for. Beautiful little thing
