It's Too Hot to Fly

Found this little Lady Bug perched on a thorn bush by the driveway when I came home from work today. It was 5:30 pm and the sign on the bank read 91 degrees (F). Yikes! It's supposed to be cooling off when the sun goes down!

Excellent image--nice detail, great processing. Scary that it is so hot in so many places.

Thank you so much for all your views, comments and favs! This is summer in the Northeast- hot and humid! And actually the humidity is what's doing me in. But, it won't be long before the temps will be much cooler than this!
