Un gran visitante en mi patio // A great visitor in my backyard
Hello friends, I want to show you the pictures of a beetle that I found in my garden, when I saw it I was scared, because it was very big, and its strong texture, in its head you could see some sharp thorns, some super long antennas, I thought in a moment that it was a toy because its appearance is like plastic, until I saw it move slowly.
I always liked to observe that camouflage in nature, when I saw it was in the brown part of the trunk it was almost imperceptible.
.
When I called my father to observe him, since I had never seen such a big beetle, the first thing I tried to do was to kill it, obviously I did not allow it. I was there quietly, even though it inspired fear because of its size, but I don't think it represented a threat to our integrity.
.
He allowed himself to take many pictures, he seemed not to be bothered by the presence of everyone.
.
I did some research to find out its name, what I found on the net is an Enoplocerus Armillatus, they are found in Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Guyana, Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay. According to the source consulted, the females can measure up to 70-80 mm and in the males 110-120 mm, it is a frugivorous insect, that is to say, it feeds on fruits, which is why the locals describe it as a pest because it eats their crops. And what I described at the beginning as part of its head, is not, the thorns are in its thorax. Until a new opportunity.

La naturaleza es fascinante. Este escarabajo tiene un look atemorizante, sin embargo estoy casi segura de que no representa ningún peligro.
Así es, en realidad no representa ningún peligro. Gracias por pasar por aquí.
Estas sorpresas ocasionales valen la pena grabarlas en fotografías, en mi jardín también me he topado con algunos pequeños amigos bastante peculiares, muy buenas fotografías por cierto!
Gracias, con la suerte que tenía mi celular a mi lado en ese momento.
Impresionante las formas y colores de la naturaleza. Yo lo fuese confundido con un chipo. Menos mal no fue en mi jardín y pudiste conservar la calma para no hacerle daño. Gracias por compartir.

Cuando lo vi moverse me asuste, pero lo hacía tan lentamente que me quede admirandolo. Gracias por pasar por aquí.
Que no hayas dejado que lo mataran demuestra amor por la naturaleza, como indicas el estaba allí tranquilo sin dañar a nadie, un post diferente pero me gustó leerlo.
GRACIAS amiga, que bueno que te gusto.
