Ladybug on Goat's-beard

Ladybug on Goat's-beard
Saw this little non-native, Seven-spotted Ladybug yesterday afternoon at the Erlton/Roxborough Natural Area. Called in for a very short walk on my way home from a volunteer shift. This is perhaps the richest area in the city for wildflower species. Unfortunately, it is being seriously overtaken by invasive weeds, like the Goat's-beard (seedhead) in my image. It has a beautiful yellow flower, but .... Another weed doing a lot of damage there is Baby's-breath (Gypsophila paniculata), which probably started when someone tossed an old vaseful of flowers over the fence from the cemetery that backs on to the natural area.

Apologies for replacing my photos from today - the other two only had one comment each, in 7 hours, which seemed strange and unusual. I wondered if maybe my photos weren't showing, which sometimes happens.
