Apr 21 – Ant

After a busy day at work I took some photos in my garden. Trying to capture a small flower (some weed) I discovered an ant on it.

Apr 12 – Coccinellidae

Another (more well known) beetle in my garden on a raspberry leaf. I found so many names of this species that I used the Latin name. We call it a “lieveheersbeestje”.

Apr 11 – Lilioceris lilii

A beetle in my garden on a warm day in the spring. Think this is a “leliehaantje” (Dutch) or “lily leaf beetle” (English), but please correct me if it’s otherwise. Not sure if I have any lilies, but he/she looked happy.
