Stag beetle (Dorcus sp.)

At home

Unfortunately, this beetle is not alive. I fished it out of a bird bath into which it must have fallen and sadly, been unable to get out. It is an impressive looking beetle.

Must say it's in pretty good shape despite being in the water and dead!

That is a huge beetle and I can't really tell it's dead in this photo. Great detail. V.

That is a rather large looking beetle!
