Thankyou Woody - yes I thought so too but wanted to be sure as I saw a little "lesser" guy (I now realise - through photos - I thought he was a young Stag Beetle, initially) in the alleyway (? "Summer Path" or something?) between Derby Hill Crescent and London Road (opposite Sainsburys)
He was very small and seemed to, either be "playing dead" or indeed was not well, as, with a gentle nudge from a leaf (by my son) he would not move on (we were trying to get him off of the main path - where he would have definitely got trodden on - to the side, by flicking him across, off the main path, with a leaf)
The front end - antennae (?) mainly, moved slightly, but not the rest of him.

Anyway ................................. keeping eyes open, always, for the "proper" Stag Beetle

Smile

Thanks again

Sue
