We are family

This afternoon, 27 August 2013, several of us went to Pearce Estates, along the Bow River in Calgary. This was the first time I had seen any of the devastation along the Bow, caused by the Alberta Flood of the Century in June. Masses of gravel and silt left behind and dried leaves and grasses plastered along fences, showing how high the water had reached at the peak of the flood - it would have been over our heads! One of the things that I was so happy to see there, on a tall grass species that no one has been able to identify the last few years, was a Ladybug - a Seven-spotted Ladybug, but a very pale orange. There were also some Ladybird larvae, which are such strange looking things, as you can see in my macro photo. www.flickr.com/photos/annkelliott/9616677686
