Journey Of A Ladybug

Posted on January 14, 2018 Posted in InsectsTagged beetle photos, lady beetle, ladybug

Gauging a distance

Journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step

Heading toward a slope

Closer to the edge

Wow, that’s long drop

Better take a long route

At last, some shade and safer too

…All in search of the wild and elusive Aphid.
