This large, brown beetle can be seen swarming around streetlights in spring. They live underground as larvae for years and emerge as adults often in large numbers. Listen for their characteristic buzzing sound…
…nothing remotely rude, just the British way of naming things, like ‘cunt gropers lane’ ‘cockermouth’ ‘wet wang’ etc
Not edible crustaceans though, apparently they taste like urine, probably due to the fact that they release ammonia…One of their local names I heard in Wales is ‘piss the bed’ Also…
In the Netherlands, they’re called pissabeds source
But, despite all the piss they’re great little critters 😀
I think I prefer moths to butterflies, the colours are more subtle and I love the general fluffiness…keep a look out as I’ll be doing some more hawk moth posts 👍
