I was in the front garden yesterday when I heard a loud whirring sound. Next thing I know I feel a tap on my back, which was caused by a rather large specimen of male stag beetle landing there
Cue me flailing my arms wildly and shaking him off
Having landed on the floor he just raised up on his back legs and pointed his mandibles at me - sort of like me squaring up to a T-Rex, shaking my fist and shouting 'come on then - think you're hard enough?'
Needless to say, I backed down and let him go on his way....
Sounds like quite an event. I hope you had a cup of tea to calm down.
