Ladybeetle larva (Coccinella septempunctata)

Many ladybeetle larvae are voracious predators on aphids, and this species is no exception.

To me they don't really look like they would be a good thing to have in my garden. However, since I did know that they're baby ladybugs I've always treated them with care.

A real case of the Ugly Duckling, for soon she will put on her adorable red jacket with how many spots? A very fine macro, and fun to see her in her pjs. V
