When I was young, I can remember our garden being full of May Bugs. Having the somewhat curious common name of Cockchafer (which allegedly is derived from the German, meaning big chewer), I was easily bemused.
We would regularly hear cracking noises as these huge flying Brazil Nuts would slam into our kitchen and dining room windows.
And, if one landed on you, then their hook like legs would hold on for dear life until they had tired of our screams and violent shaking, before flying away.

The Israeli military said Saturday it had launched "extensive strikes" in the Gaza Strip over the past day as part of the "initial stages" of a fresh offensive on the besieged Palestinian territory.
More than 300 Gazans have been killed in Israeli strikes since Thursday, making it one of the deadliest phases of bombardment since a truce collapsed in March.
Details by FRANCE 24 correspondent in Jerusalem, Noga Tarnopolsky.

The image features a display of several red Formula 1 race cars, prominently showcasing the Ferrari brand. The cars are lined up in a row, with the closest car in the foreground displaying the number 1 and the Shell logo on its front wing. The cars are adorned with various sponsor logos, including Vodafone, Bridgestone, and Shell. The background includes a large wall with text, likely providing historical context or information about the cars. The lighting is dim, focusing attention on the cars, and the overall setting appears to be an exhibition or museum. The cars are positioned on a flat surface, and the image captures the intricate details of the vehicles, such as the aerodynamic components and sponsor decals.
