    Default Common red soldier beetle - Rhagonycha fulva

    Was looking for butterflies along the estuary and just admiring the view in general when a little red thing flew by. Interesting I thought. So watched it land and subjected it to a photography session.

    It looks distinctly like the beetle my little Dunnock fledgling has in it's beak

    No. No rain today. It rained all night and at about 10 it looked like stopping and did. Turned out very nice and there were loads of them but they wouldn't keep still.

    I you want to know when a photo was taken copy it to you desk top and then run your mouse over it and the EXIF will show you the time date and camera
    I have only ever changed the EXIF once when My camera's date was about 2 years incorrect (due to fiddling)
