Description

Very nice little red-one this "Scarlet Lily Beetle" She and here larva will ruin your lily though. If touched she will make a soft squeeky noise like a little mouse. Glad to be posting again, health got in the way the last few month's. Will do some commenting too, again :) PapaGuru.

OOH! One of my favorites on this page. I love the whites around the leaf on the background and how they don't go around the end of the leaf. It leaves you with the feeling of 'oh, he still could fall off'. Kinda hard for me to explain, but the lack of white on the end of the leaf leaves the picture open and allows you to look at the rest of the background, which is a GOOD thing. The other light at the bottom left is the second thing which catches my eye. Great balance and color. Just excellent!
