These two cream-spot ladybirds are somewhat too busy, making more ladybirds.
I put them back outside after a few more minutes - they very vulnerable at this time, so a little extra protection is no bad thing.

These two were busy making more ladybugs when I found them ... after they had finished, I took some images, this was the best one, and then released them back into the area where I found them.

[Calvia 14-guttata] Cream-spot Ladybird - eats aphids, mainly on trees and shrubs.

First time I've actually got one of these on camera, I wasn't sure if I remembered seeing them in real life before today, or just in photographs.

A very active 7-spot ladybird in my garden. It's a welcome visitor and will hopefully help keep the numbers of aphids down. Shrewsbury, Shropshire, April 2022.

3 pictures above in notes! :)

Well, this day didn't turn out as expected...I am typing this on Steve's iPhone and am relieved to have this bit of access to the internet. There was a crew working down at the road putting in new cable or optical line, not sure what. At about noon we lost our phone and internet and nobody seems to know when this will be resolved. :/ I had plans of visiting and commenting today but only got to say hi to about 35 people before my plans were tossed in the trash. :( [NOTE: Service was finally restored at 8:30am pst, yay!!]

However, I did take my pictures and we figured out how to get them uploaded so I won't miss a 365 day! :)

This morning I was busy commenting and having my usual delightful time when I felt something crawling in my hair! Gently touching, I felt nothing but then saw something on my glasses! Ack! I was sure it would be a nasty tick and pulled them off instantly to see. To my relief, I saw instead a beautiful ladybug crawling along. Without a pause, I hopped up, went downstairs and got my camera! Such fun to take pictures of these beauties... As it turned out, I got 4 nice pictures to share today!

Her poems have been anthologized many times and are frequently used in textbooks.

Born in Michigan, Fisher moved to Colorado as an adult and lived there for the rest of her life. (From wiki)

questa è una Harmonia axyridis, detta comunemente coccinella arlecchino o "pericolo giallo" poiché, proveniente dalla Cina e introdotta in Europa per combattere afidi, ora sta minacciando le nostre coccinelle locali ed è anche nefasta per la produzione del vino.
Infatti:
- si nutre prevalentemente di afidi e cocciniglie, ma è predatore di numerosi altri insetti e coleotteri, tra cui le larve di coccinella, i neurotteri e i ditteri sirfidi. L'elevato numero delle sue prede fa sì che questa coccinella riesca a debellare le specie afidifaghe autoctone e sostituirsi ad esse.
- In estate, ma soprattutto in prossimità della vendemmia, essa tende a rifugiarsi all’interno di grappoli grossi e compatti, e a rilasciare la sua emolinfa dalle articolazioni femorotibiali (tramite un processo definito autoemorrea). La sua emolinfa contiene sostanze aromatiche come le metossipirazine, che hanno odore sgradevole e nauseabondo, e che se presenti nel mosto alterano fortemente il sapore e l’odore del vino.
