The end of this summer ! ?

It is getting cooler and darker day by day and when the clouds start to look like this, I think it is time to leave Svångemåla and move to warmer regions.

Sunflowers

Sunflowers always make me happy. They look like big sunny smiles and it is no wonder that butterflies love them. This year we have had various kinds of sunflowers going from bright yellow to lovely red.

From the stone age?

I found this stone a couple of years ago and the more I look at it, the more intrigued I get. Is it man made? Has someone had a house on my plot thousands of years ago or is it just a natural piece of rock? I you have any idea, please let me know!

Beetles

There are a large number of beetles in Svångemåla. Some of them are well known even to me but several of them are total strangers. If you know the names of the ones below, please let me know!

Update: This is some sort of leaf beetle.

This one I know!  It is a female stag beatle (Lucanus cervus ). 

This one looks like a some sort of stink bug but I am not sure. They are called "berry farts" in Sweden :) Update: This nice looking beetle is an Italian Striped Bug (Graphosoma lineatum )

It really looks like a AC Milan fan!

RIO !

The Olympic Games are soon here and I have started to see signs :) Or is there another message to me?
