CDPB Theme - Bright Colors: Japanese Beetle

The first day of each month there is a theme for all City Daily Photo Blogs.  Tulsa Gentleman is a City Daily Photo Blog for Tulsa, Oklahoma.  The theme for August is "Bright Colors".  This little Japanese Beetle is munching on a yellow marigold.  A light sprinkle of rain left little drops of water to reflect the colors.  He may be a pest but at least he dresses well..

  4. Gorgeous shot of the beetle, Bill. Marigolds are such a great flower to scatter around as they keep so many crawlie things away. Not beetles, obviously.

  7. Absolutely fantastic and really bright. Well photographed. I like mother nature's colours very much. They are unbeatable.

    I wish you a colourful and successful (month of) August.
