Swarming ladybirds!

Ladybirds/Ladybugs

Ladybird, ladybird fly away home…ladybugs hanging out together, it looks like no one wants to go home.

Apparently a group of ladybirds is called a loveliness – that’s what the internet told me!!

When I saw today’s theme of swarm, I immediately thought of this photo which I took not all that long ago .There is a power pole up in the bush which is covered in these ladybirds and we don’t really know why they congregate together like this.

Swarm: to fly off together in a group, as bees; to move about in great numbers, as things or persons. Show us something that overruns your scene, but observe and compose carefully before you click the shutter.
Show us a swarm today: large group, moving together. Birds. Bugs. Kids. Taxi cabs. Your subjects can be big or small, animate or inanimate — whatever they are, you just need a lot of them.

I think I have followed the instructions on this one! I zoomed in on them and have composed the shot to try and show the larger pack. I like their togetherness, not to mention their orangeness! It does make a good picture though!

What do you think?
