Spotted Lady

Well it was a choice between another Lady Bug or a Blurry Robin!! lol...It was so cold out today i thought that all the ladybugs would have been gone or tucked away in a warm spot somewhere and then i spotted this one...one only ...snug as a bug deep in the petals of this Orchid! Now i wonder where Ladybugs go when the winter settles in?...This may be my last ladybug picture for awhile, Im sure you wont mind!! lol!

Thank you all so much for viewing and commenting and faving my Sketched Barn and or the original, I see you all enjoy the color alot, and some of you enjoyed the sketched one even more ! I am really trying to learn more processing techniques, and i see i still have alot to learn! :)

What a great find; snug as a bug, as they say. And of course I'd rather you post this than one of a 'blurry Robin'!! Beautiful shot.

Tucked away in a warm flower

Very pretty. I don't have a clue where they go during cold temps.

I love lady bugs, great capture

[KWind]

Fabulous. I love how the bug is framed within the petals. Such gorgeous colours too.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Great capture! I assume they hibernate somewhere- maybe in the bark of a tree or something. Because once the weather warms up they come out again!
