Hundreds and thousands

That's what the garden was like this afternoon - never seen so many ladybirds in one go!

Quite liked this one but thought too much red.

Then quite liked this one too - take off into the sun!

But plumped for this in the end as really like the side view of him.

Today I have been putting into practice some of the things I learnt on Saturday - bit scary - but the more you do the things that scare you, the better they get!

"Do the thing you fear most and the death of fear is certain."
Mark Twain

Edit:
Just seen the thumbnail I've chosen and actually rather like the close crop so changed to that - original here.
If you think I've picked the wrong one let me know!
