Counted at least a dozen in the area. Really active today.
I counted four of these within a 7meter radius. About 5cm long.
This very impressive beetle was sitting in the walkway of an apartment complex here in Hong Kong. I've search for a good while to try and find a match but came up empty handed. Any ID help would be greatly appreciated.
about 7cm long. horns about 14cm
I got him to sit on my grey card so the color should be pretty spot on.
I made a little photography stand out of paper and plastic cups. Testing it out here to see if it helps get clearer pictures. It does, but it really ticks them off and I think it roughs them up a bit. On the bright side they don't fly off and the get their underside.
about one inch.
I often hunt for moths on this wall and tonight i notices someone else was hunting as well.
