A Touch Of Yellow

Isn't it great when something unexpected (in a good way) happens with your photography?

The prompt for CY365 was 'A Touch Of Yellow'.   I went out into the garden and couldn't find any yellow flowers.   Then I couldn't help but notice the ever growing weeds in the back garden, and saw the yellow centres of the Cobbler's Peg flowers.   Perfect for the prompt I thought.

Then just as I started to press the shutter, this little bee flew into the frame.  Now this was perfect.

28 Spotted Potato Ladybird

I recently discovered that those cute little ladybirds I have been photographing in my backyard are actually pests. Named the '28 Spotted Potato Ladybirds', these little guys feed on the leaves of potatoes, pumpkins, melons and other leafy crops.
