2016 Wildlife Photo Contest

Ladybug, Pine Mountain, California , United States
Acorn Home for Ladybugs

Species: Ladybug | Location: Pine Mountain, California , United States

While admiring a mighty oak tree, I noticed the empty acorn tops on the branches. Fascinated, I looked closer at a cluster of them and noticed that one of them had become a home for a family of ladybugs. I had never seen anything like that, so, of course, I had to capture that amazing glimpse into nature's wonder.
