Today, while picking garlic in the floodplain forest, I managed to snap a photo of this handsome fellow on a wild garlic leaf. It’s an oak weevil, Curculio glandium. He’s probably young, because he hasn’t yet learned the trick most weevils use—when a photographer stares at you, retreat to the underside of the leaf and wait until they leave. Not this one—he patiently let me take his picture.
