Flower & Ladybug

From a late-spring hike in Sesame Canyon, here's a wildflower...
And a wild ladybug, slightly dented.
This is for the Weekend Flowers and Scenic Sunday memes.

    Wild roses are so beautiful - it looks like a couple of tiny critters got caught in the shot ...

    I have never seen a dented ladybug before. I wonder how that happened???

    The ladybug is battered but unbowed! I love those bugs outside, but in the Fall they have a tendency to pop into our RV uninvited and I don't love them so much inside -- one at a time is OK -- you can take them out and let them fly away home, but when you have more than a few it's a disaster.

    I love wild roses -- any time any place!

    Actually, it's a peak of dry season here in my town, and that wildfire on Kacapi mountain is an annually ritual.
    Anyway, it's a nice pic of your wildflower. well done!

    I see the ladybug on the wild rose, hiding. The rose is beautiful! Then that closeup is awesome! But, I wonder how his/her back got dented! That's so odd!
