As a human, we remain fond of finding hidden beautiful objects or valuables.
For me, treasure hunt is finding wildlife hidden in different habitats and spaces.

Der Sechzehnfleckige Marienkäfer (Halyzia sedecimguttata) soll die Härte des Winters voraussagen können. Je nach Überwinterungsplatz wird der Winter hart oder weniger hart.

Nahaufnahme eines Sechzehnfleckigen Marienkäfers (Halyzia sedecimguttata) auf moosbedecktem Untergrund. Der Käfer zeigt seine charakteristische orange-gelbe Färbung mit weißen Flecken auf den Flügeldecken und einen auffällig gelben Halsschild. Die glänzende Oberfläche und die symmetrische Anordnung der hellen Punkte sind deutlich erkennbar, während der Käfer zwischen grünem Moos und Pflanzenresten fotografiert wurde.

​Dieses Bild ist eine Makroaufnahme eines Marienkäfers (Coccinellidae), der sich an einer strukturierten, hellen Oberfläche festhält. ​Der Marienkäfer befindet sich im Zentrum des Fokus. Sein runder, glänzender Panzer (Elytren) ist in einem leuchtenden Orange-Rot gefärbt und weist die charakteristischen schwarzen Punkte auf. Das Insekt klammert sich mit seinen Beinen an einer Vertiefung oder einem Spalt der Oberfläche fest.

Is today the equivalent of flying ant day? Certainly, here in Dorset, many, many on the wing. It should come as no surprise that the collective noun for ladybirds is a loveliness and, the scientific name Coccinellidae
anyone else seeing these numbers?

Lots of coccinellidae stocking up for the winter on aphids at Pronghorn Natural Area in Arapahoe County, CO. Broad-striped and Sinuate lady beetles enjoying aphids on bulrush, and Nine-spotted and Ebony Shield lady beetles taking aphids from marsh elder. So far, I've seen 12 different species there
A black and orange lady beetle on a blade of grass. Sinuate lady beetle (Hippodamia sinuata) A black and white striped lady beetle with subtle pink shading sitting on a reed. Broad-striped Lady Beetle (Paranaemia vittigera) An orange lady beetle with small black spots on a green plant. Nine-spotted Lady Beetle (Coccinella novemnotata) A solid black, shiny lady beetle on a dried out plant. Called Ebony Shield Lady Beetle (Exochomus aethiops)
