Grazing - _TNY_4009

A pair of green longhorn beetles (Lepturobosca virens) munching pollen and nectar on a meadowsweet (Filipendula ulmaria) next to the water in the Mjällådalen nature reserve on an August (of 2025) visit.

 

They were totally lost in their tasty food and didn't care at all about me holding the stem of the flower and rotating it and just kept eating. Also, seeing them like this makes me think of cattle grazing.
