You don't have to be Beautiful

To turn me on. (Prince/Tom Jones) A bit desperate due to lack of wee beasties, hence this shot of a Red Breasted Carrion Beetle, Oiceoptoma thoracicum - on a dog turd!! (What will auto-tags make of this I wonder - nothing actually). So a pair of these beetles, scurrying about on a very large turd. Have they mistaken it for carrion? Anyhow, I've cropped the shot to disguise the shit (paying attention auto-tags??)

 

Errrr, no, Mrs B. you may not pose on my hand to have your picture taken!
