A bit late for #35 International Pet Day (April 11) - 52 in 2025 Challenge
The Netherlands - Bergen
After the winter lots of invertebrates show up again. And have no time to lose. Like these Timberman beetles (Acanthocinus aedilis - Timmerboktor). The species is found in woodlands, with a large distribution through Europe, Russia and Central Asia. The adults are active from March to June. In Continental Europe this species has become a serious pest of commercially-grown timber as the larvae feed under the bark, weakening the pine trees. But of course their impact is in no way proportional to what mankind does to Mother Earth. A rare species in my country, by the way. © Tom Kisjes
