Found this Carrot beetle on the driveway this morning in 60 degree temps. Where is winter?

Clearly it doesn't believe in shaving its armpits.

He seems to be enjoying the warm day!
This is incredible.

Very fascinating! V

It seems like he might be wondering the same thing.

That's really good macro photography with perfect detail and lighting.

Brilliant details and a superb close up. V

That temperature is colder than my winter...guess the beetle is loving it.

Great detail. I like the textures of the shell.
To answer your question, Winter is here in SoCal. It was 35F yesterday morning.

Effectivement un moment bizarre pour trouver ce coléoptère, une image d'une grande netteté! V

What an interesting looking guy! 60 degrees in upstate New York in December, that is scary.

A great macro with fine details....love that light and shine on the wings...V

Great close up of this red head...60 degrees? I'm jealous. v

Winter will return, but at least in its respite you got this nice sharp shot.

What a gorgeous sharp shot!! Must think it is summer! V

splendid find and sharp picture, surely M.I.A. that winter even here!

Really excellent detail on this colorful beetle, and I agree about the fur. It was 66 here when I took Sahraa out late in the day, so my question is: What winter?

Really super details. Like the furry undershirt. V
