What's in a Name?



This is one of my windows... Yes, those are ladybugs... Millions of ladybugs. I took this yesterday at lunch time. And you wondered why our house was named Ladybug Crossing.

We have that problem too!! They haven't been as bad yet this year. They actually get INSIDE my sunroom. I know they eat other insects and they are pretty but they STINK!

Never thought people could dislike them but then again I get to see maybe three a year...
Here via Wendy's this time, happy Halloween! :)

Wow...Are you the ladybug welcome wagon. They are really attracted to you...you must be their queen! I've never seen so many before. Happy Halloween!

Wow! I haven't seen that many since we were in Korea...they were all over the wall to our appartment. Two years ago we had a whole bunch out in the yard, but nothing like that.

It was great to be able to show DD the different stages of their development...well except for the eggs...we never did find any eggs.

Oh! Those are the coolest pics - especially the first one. I too an inundated with them!! I guess it's that time of the year in VA?? I don't have quite so many sticking to my screens as you, though!

That is so unusual - I've never seen so many together before.

wow. that is a lot of ladybugs. I think they are cute, but that is almost creepy.

Ohhhhhhhh ... so YOUR house is where they went! MY windows looked like that about a month ago! Maybe 6 weeks... isn't it AMAZING!? WHERE do they all come from???? (well, now you know... they came from MY house!)

What causes that to happen? We had a ton of ladybugs last year, but none this year. Such a strange thing!

OMG! Sorry LBC, but that creeps me out a bit! Blech! I love ladybug - in the singular - not a zillionladybugs!

I never imagined when you said there were many LadyBugs over at the Crossing that it would look like that! :)
