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.

I've hiding behind a street lantern, but a good try nonetheless. Reminds me of this movie called "A bug's life";-) Posted 13 years ago
