Thank you Neil.
Those are some serious nippers on that little guy! Great spotting, Greg, and wonderful photos.
Thank you very much for the comments.
Nice series Greg. Thanks for sharing.
This is a Coleoptera, family Carabidae, pretty similar to Odontocheila sp. here in Argentina.
It’s hard to not think, what could be going on between those two eyes?
Thank you Mark
..and they look so innocent with those big black eyes.
Good series Greg.
Thank you very much Gaia80
Great photos of the beetle catching a prey!
