Orange Edges - _TNY_8823

Here's a nice beetle with nice orange edge work, a water lily leaf beetle (Galerucella nymphaeae). It was in the process of munching on the lily pad so I was able to sneak up on it (about waist deep in the water).

 

These lay their eggs on the lily pads, something which looks like this: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/51628090692/
