Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get it better focused, but I'm thinking this might be Amara familiaris, as it was in profusion on my walk along the coast last Friday. A species of Amara, for sure, but I read that this one likes the seaside 🙂 #Insects #Beetles #GroundBeetles | #Reculver #Kent #England

Calosoma scrutator are such beautiful beetles. I rescued one from another teacher's classroom ceiling earlier this week and it's settling into its new home quite nicely. #insects #insectsofmastodon #InsectsOfTheFediverse #beetles #groundbeetles #calosomascrutator #scienceteacher #entomology
