When I went downstairs to my kitchen a few days ago, I noticed this tiny Two-spotted Ladybug (Adalia bipunctata) on one of the flowers. My kitchen is quite dark, especially as I still haven't changed an awkward lightbulb in there, so I grabbed a flashlight and snapped this. There are approximately 35 species of Ladybug in Alberta.
"This most familiar Lady Beetle is found throughout Alberta in fields and gardens. As winter approaches, the Two-spotted Lady Beetle might move into your house to seek a dry safe place to hibernate for winter .....The Two-spotted Lady Beetle overwinters as an adult under piles of leaf litter or in some other protected space. Sometimes they congregate in large numbers to sleep away winter." From talkaboutwildlife.org.
After a beautiful day yesterday, today it's -2C and we have had/are still having heavy snow all day long, and now a strong wind has developed. Here comes winter, AGAIN! So depressing.
(Note to self, because I have such a bad memory: I saw this photo in Explore at #85 last night, but it was not picked up by Scout. I'm beginning to get a little irritated that yet another photo has been missed by Scout in the last week, but I'm sure this happens to many of you, too : )) Later: yay, it's finally shown up on Scout.
