Ladybird (Ladybug) -- The Coccinellidae

Ladybird (Ladybug)

The Coccinellidae are a family of small beetles, ranging from 1 to 10 mm (0.04 to 0.4 inches). They are commonly yellow, orange, or scarlet with small black spots on their wing covers, with black legs, heads and antennae. Such color patterns vary greatly, however; for example, a minority of species, such as Vibidia duodecimguttata, a twelve-spotted species, have whitish spots on a brown background. Coccinellidaes are found worldwide, with over 5,000 species described,more than 450 native to North America alone.

    I love when we can get a glimpse of nature like this, up close. My coaching shirt this season is highlighter yellow, and it seems to attract a lot of ladybugs! I'm definitely going to follow this blog.

    Macro work like this is fascinating to me personally. Kudos for being patient enough to compose for just the right shot. I'm curious about the lens you used and if you utilized a close-up filter and/or extension tubes.
