Sorry for such a terrible title, but as I took these photos of the weevil that was clambering across the leaves of one of my Lily of the Valley plants, I say what an amazing bodyshell (carapace? chetin?) it had and to me looks like it could have been made my a pair of knitting needles - hence the wooly pullover bit, lol...
Anyway, the weevil is a particularly harmful pest in the garden, and this one is going to have to be deposited outside of mine somewhere (nasty neighbour perhaps... - dare I?)
Here it is then, looking out over the tip of the leaf.
Ringflash used.
C&C as always appreciated.
