Ladybug

Last week the ladybugs were swarming and somehow a couple dozen ended up inside my house. They’re pretty and not much of a bother so I was content to let them.
This one was trundling across the kitchen floor when I thought, “I wonder if she would like a drink?” I offered her one, by way of dripping some water on the floor in front of her. She was quite appreciative and stopped for several minutes to tank up. This gave me more than enough time to get the camera and take a few pictures.
This second picture presents a bit of a quandary. I like the pose better, but I like the dynamic shot angle of the first photo. I guess it’s a good thing I’ve gotten in the habit of running twofers now and then.

I’ve never seen a yellow one before - nice!
