June beetles get their name from when they’re most active — in June!

The Summertime
June beetles, also known as June bugs, are a type of scarab beetle common in Ontario, particularly in late spring and early summer.

A june beetle holding onto a grass halm (Dactylis glomerata).

Two June Beetles, possibly in the act of making more June Beetles, on a different halm of grass.

Oh, this? Nothing to see here, just a few European June Beetles (Amphimallon solstitiale) doing beetle things, that's all 👀

A blurry photo of an orange-brown June Beetle flying into a Spotted Apatoides moth that I was trying to shoot, causing it to take flight.

Today I share a #photo that captures the epic clumsy bufoonery of June Beetles. I don't dislike June Beetles, but they are some of the most benignly annoying insects at the buglight. Flying into me constantly, or in this photo, flying into the moth I was trying to shoot 🤪
