So I looked at pictures of Japanese beetles on the web, so what the heck are
"June bugs"?  That's what I've always thought of as Japanese beetles.  Have
I been wrong all this time?
You'll never see a June bug and a Japanese beetle together. Japanese beetles
are really very handsome with multicolored wing covers (carapace?), kind of
coppery/bluish/greenish.  They sit on flowers, flower buds, and leaves,
eating all day, basking in the sun and making babies.  June bugs are bigger
and you'll find them buzzing around porch lights at night. Don't know what
they eat and they're not that pretty.
