Jon SullivanHere's a Tunga Rere, the huhu beetle, NZ's largest native beetle species.
I'd forgotten I'd taken this photo and just found it in my backlog and popped it on iNaturalist (and Flickr).
They're fantastically chunky beetles.
Zeborah@joncounts What a great photo!
@zeborah Thanks! 😄

@joncounts , love the pic.
Yeah, you know it's them when you hear that loud, hard knock against your window in the evening.

@Antigrav Thanks. Yes, they're hefty beetles for sure.
