Spotting

Description:

Unidentified weevil, a beetle of the Curculionidae family.

Habitat:

Photographed in overgrown urban area.

Notes:

This weevil sits with his legs tucked under him (and often his snout tucked down under also), or may fall over on his side when he feels threatened. In this way he greatly resembles bird droppings - very unappetizing!.
