Garden Mammoth

This very huge, very beautiful Beetle came staggering slowly out of my Garden one morning, heavy and satisified after a night of feasting on my Coneflowers. Ordinarily, he would be quickly dispatched in a coffee can of homemade "beetle juice", and then left in the road for the birds. But since he was such a cooperative "subject", I let him live - in my neighbor's Garden!! LOL

Love the way you dispatched him to your neighbour's garden! He is a rather beautiful, prehistoric-looking creature
