Lovely shot Mary, love ladybirds.
Mary MacADNski: That seems to be universal. I met a woman whose craft business was entirely ladybirds. She painted nothing else.
how is it we all like ladybirds but most people don't like beetlestongue
Mary MacADNski: Possibly because we know they don't bite? I'm not afraid of any bug that I know is harmless.
Superbly captured Mary. I like the colours contrast!
Mary MacADNski: Thanks so much, Richard.
Interesting that those not in the U.K.call these Ladybugs whereas we call them Ladybirds. Whatever, this is a fine picture Mary.
Mary MacADNski: Birds are quite a bit bigger. LOL. Thanks, Brian.
Love ladybugs and this is superb,ladybugs are good luck also!! Cheers Mary, HC
Mary MacADNski: It's good to know they're good luck. Our beach grasses are filled with them.
Well spotted Mary...Ladybirds are always welcomed.

We call them ladybirds, Mary. I like the hint of the beach beyond; good choice of DOF.
