We are not sure. I put a photo up on inaturalist. Maybe someone there will know what species.

I found an ID. It appears to be a Rough Hermit Beetle, or Osmoderma scabra.

Interesting photo! I like the second one the most!

good job on the focus on these, especially that 2nd one, but I prefer the 3rd. The marks on them reminds me of strawberries.
