Black Headed Fire Beetle

in nature •  7 years ago  (edited)

While working with students, unexpected things can happen. One of the students found a Black Headed Fire Beetle when we were working in the garden. He was playing with it and I took some pictures. The animal was released soon after and lived happily ever after. :-)
