Really Searching Hard!

There has been so little wildlife lately (other than my occasional butterfly) that I've been walking with my eyes trained on every dead flower and weed around. This cucumber beetle (had to look that up) showed up - and he's small but got him!

Another wonderful find! Beautiful polka dot pattern. I'm glad you've introduced me to a cucumber beetle. I'd never heard of them before. Great capture, Milanie!

@janetb That's because my husband told me there's no such thing as a green ladybug! (My first thought before I noticed the feelers) So off to my neat little reference book next to my computer.
