Transformation part 2
The ladybird is an insect that also undergoes transformation. I can still remember the first time I came across a huge colony of ladybird larva, in a client’s garden when I worked as a professional gardener. They are quite unlike the adult and look more like a miniature crocodile!
Like a butterfly, the adult form of a ladybird is loved by many and features in children’s stories and in songs. 
As ever an eye catching shot that grabbed me when trawling through the tags, Eremophila!
