Colourful beetle

Today as I was walking in the garden I heard a noise as though someone threw a packet which fell with a thud. I looked behind me and this what I saw. Great big beetle. Because of his weight he could barely fly. Our caretaker who looks after the house when we are not here picked it up for me to take a picture of him before he was released. Isn't his colours amazing. I wish he had let me take better pictures before he flew away.

    Hi Shashi, he is colourful but scary too - I think I might have run away! Have a lovely day.

    Well he did look scary. At first I thought it was a very large cockroach but when the caretaker caught it and said it is a beetle and harmless. He was rather grand looking with all those irridescent colours.
