In the summer I can't remember exactly when, I found a rather ill looking Dor beetle and picked it up to see what was wrong. I found it was covered in mite on it's underside, so I took a toothbrush(an old one!) and brushed away the mite and took by Nature girl

Talkback: Stag beetles

Thank you Richard. At last, a picture of a female stag beetle. It's usually the male that gets all the publicity so people don't know what the female looks like. Even in last year's excellent article in GW magazine, there were pictures of males by Barbara Pennell

Talkback: Stag beetles

I LOVE LOVE LOVE stag beetles! Do they come in two sizes? I sometimes see small ones -- are they the younger generation? every year my sister has loads of the giant buggers in her garden,not so good for the dogs though as they hang onto the fur by fruit trees
