I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)
I took this during the summer. I was excited to see it, I had never seen such a thing before! Despite seeing many, many ladybirds in my time, I'd never seen a ladybird larva until I took this photo! It is always exciting to find something new.
Many people are surprised that the larvae look so different from the adults. I am not quite sure why, since they readily accept that caterpillars become butterflies!
...I've never seen the larva either!
ReplyDeleteI was happy to see it :-D
DeleteNew for me too.
ReplyDeleteGood to see it. Thanks Bill :-D
DeleteThe bug is looking so lovely
ReplyDeleteIt really is :-D
