That looks like a Bee crossed with a wasp and a moth.

You mean a "bewath"?

Buy it a collar and a little food bowl, see if you can keep it as a pet. More interesting than a dog.

slap it in the freezer (in a bag of some kind unless you want the 'mang' on tonights dinner) then whip it out after a few minutes and itll be nice and calm so you can tie aabit of cotton round its leg...

*remembers ye olde times doing the above with wasps

It's a May bug; google images for some examples. Harmless.

Well it is may

Put it in the freezer and tie some fine string to its legs and then you can keep a hold of it while it tries to fly away

Make a little leash for it and take it for walks! It might be hungry - give it some lettuce.

What are you going to call your new pet? I vote for 'Helmut' (said in germanic voice), bless him.

"Here Helmut, cmon GOOD boy....whose a lovely little cockchafer then"

Made me laugh

And down here they are called Christmas beatles

I got chased off a golf course by SWARMS of these things. Infact the whole course emptied fast and these things were attacking us !! So be nice to him or he will be back with a "Posse" to sort you out ....

Did you know that beetle contains 80% protein and some part of the world consider them as a delicacy?

I wonder what it will taste like when roasted and place between mustatd and sandwich.

I remember walking into my bedroom one evening when I was about 10 and finding one of these Maybugs / Cockchafers things circling the light. I say walked in, in fact I got about 1 foot through the door before hearing the racket it made and seeing its huge shadow projected onto the walls - I thought I had some sort flying evil monster/gunship thing in my room and had no idea what it was or how big it was. Just ran away shouting DAD!!
