Bullhead (Cottus gobio) - River Trent Notts., a photo by Lamia textor on Flickr.
Definitely not a beetle but a cracking little beast a Bullhead, just shows how clean the River Trent has become these days. Forty years ago if you turned a stone over in the Trent you would only have found leeches and tubifex, a sure sign of pollution. This one was found at Shelford by turning over some of the marginal stones.
No bullheads were harmed in the making of this Blog!
