Coccinella septempunctata is the most common ladybird in Europe. Its elytra are of a red colour, but punctuated with three black spots each, with one further spot being spread over the junction of the two, making a total of seven spots, from which the species derives both its common and scientific names.

Just wondering what is the chance of meeting these creatures on a single branch. So beautiful.
Would you be so kind as to tell me wether the scene is natural or slightly helped?
