It as May Beetle ( Melolontha melolontha).
This large bug is quite common especially in May and sometimes there is so many of them that we can call it a plague.
They aren't rather "gifted" fliers and often crash with walls, windows etc. The Maybugs fly mostly in evening and night. In this moment I found large bug atcive in the daytime on my garden. |

Hi Rimantas,
great picture with great colors and composition. It's just a pity that the focus is not the best - the head of the bug is too fuzzy.
Anyway, great picture,
Oki

Hi Rimantas.
Thank you for your interest to my works. I like your collection so much too.
This one is very nice too. Excellent inclined composition, nicely saturated colours, perfect details and sharpness. You have selected DOF very well as well as the POV which is very impressive. I also like well blurred and colourful BG. At whole, perfect done. My compliments and TFS.
Alexei.
Can I write my critique for you in Russian? My English is not very good (more exactly: very poor).
It is indeed a Melolontha melolontha ,but the english name for it is "cockchafer".
The maybug is a very different insect.
Nice colors
TFS
