Halloween Bug

...............so I went outside to find something to photograph and took a few very uninspired shots. While I was inside looking at them to figure out which one was the least uninspired I noticed a little movement on my left shoulder. Yes, I resorted to another "bug" shot. I have never seen one like this. He obviously is in some kind of witness protection plan because he would not turn so I could get a good shot of his face!

Funny! That is a very funky bug! Any idea what it is yet?

@thesandbox5 I have no earthly idea. Maybe someone will see it and let me know.

Great shot! Great commentary! And guess where this bug would be if I had been the one to notice "a little movement on my left shoulder?" Across the room somewhere he would have landed when I screamed and flicked off of me! :)

@marilyn Thank you so much. I imagine he might have been stomped on had you noticed him! ;.} but for me he was a photo op! I needed the subject!

Nice detailed shot, I saw it in the macro shots discussion.
It's a Ladybird larvae, quite a colourful one.
I also spotted on last year: http://365project.org/natsnell/others/2011-06-12

@natsnell Thanks, Nat. I had no idea. Is this one as well? http://365project.org/grammyn/everything-else/2011-09-21 They are so very different colored.
