First bug of the year

[Naheed]

Yay! Spring has sprung - my first beetle photo of the year!

7 Spot Ladybird - Coccinella septempunctata, the most common of Britain's ladybirds. There was a loveliness of them on a small conifer in our back garden. I think they were feeding on sap from new shoots as I couldn't see any aphids.

Taken hand-held with my new trusty friend, Olympus TG-6.

I love this shot! Perfectly captured!

This shot of the ladybugs probably has the best over all result

Definitely a very good effort!
