Looks can be deceiving

This, with the shiny coppery back, could almost be termed as pretty. But, they are so destructive! They can devour a rose bush in no time.

Thanks for your comments and favs on yesterday's pic. I appreciate your stopping by today!

That is a beautiful looking bug, as bugs go, with its iridescent colors. It reminds me of a scarab beetle. What is the name of this bugger? :)
