Night Visitor...

        I've made an entry before of a beetle on my orchid plant, Here's another one that I've found..



 This beetle was resting on an old leaf of Peristeria elata.  
Its quite small, roughly around 3 centimetres..



A close up on the body..reveals a very pretty metallic sheen...



 Its just sits there motionless..
but  I had to be careful while snapping the picture..



Another close up..



 Another shot showing on different angle..



 Another close-up on the body, nice metallic colouration..



 This is my first time seeing this species..
guess this is a nocturnal type..



 A close up shot on the head..


 A view from the front..


Last shot..still not moving..anyway, thanks for 'your cooperation'..!
