I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this amazing beetle feasting on the nectar from a White Hyacinth. I managed to get several very nice pictures of this beauty and I'm so excited! I finally got a cool shot of a metallic beetle, and it looks like it's covered with velvet!!! Thanks to rinus54 for helping narrow down my search on this beetle! Now I know it's a False Blister Beetle, but I am not sure it's the type he suggested because a) it lives in Europe and b) it has a metallic sheen but neither gender is gold in color. Still, I'm THRILLED because I'm close to the exact species now! THANK YOU!!
