Uphill struggle

I think this is a harlequin ladybird that was having a struggle to climb up the side of my wooden gardening basket.  We have struggled with the gardening today and were glad to be interrupted twice - first by daughter and then by son visiting with cards and flowers for Mothers Day.  "Little and often" is how we are going to tackle the weeding until we are off on our travels again and without doubt there will be lots more to do when we come back!
