Sparkling

Description

I was told about this Weevil, but was never able to come across one. When I was walking our dogs one morning, something caught my eye, sitting on top of a tall piece stalk of grass. I got a closer look and it was the weevil I have been looking for! I continued on my walk and on the way back, checked to see if it was still there, it was. So I went home, grabbed my macro and headed back to the Weevil. I just couldn't get enough of it. When the sun would shine on it, I saw so many beautiful colours sparkling away.
