Cockchafer 2012-05-04

On the way to the forest I see the first cockchafer this year. The German name of this beetle is Maikäfer - literally May beetle - indicating that its highest activity is in May. The imagines creep out the soil in May and live for merely 4 to 8 weeks so the only can be seen during May and June.
