Poor little fellow. It got more and more scared and started running into the grass, as I gradually brought the camera near to it. At one point I literally started asking- Please, stop for a minute, don’t hide too much.
Hehehe. But, it was fun.

They might be small but ladybugs can move quite fast, especially if you’re tying to photograph them!
Yes they really do that. Thank God, it didn’t had anywhere to go past this surface.
Nice shot
In Indonesia it’s called ‘KEPIK’
I didn’t know that! Thank you Mama
Nice shot
btw why did u get scared ?? poor bug got scared coz of U
I never said I got scared. And true, the bug got scared.
awwww! Is there anything more lovely than a lady-bug? so sweet, Nandini!
No there isn’t! Thanks Andrea for your lovely comment
great shot Nandini – love the splurge of read from the ladybug – I guess we must look pretty big and scary if we keep coming at them…hehe
Yes that poor bug was scared. It flew away so fast as soon as it came out on the surface. I guess freedom is what we all aspire for.
Thank you Jo for your lovely comment.
That’s great Nandini! You were able to capture the lady bug! I have noticed they tend to move quickly hehehe
Yes they do. I spent more than 15 minutes to take a few shots. Will share the non-hidden ones soon. So do check out
Thanks Gracie
It’s amazing what you might miss out on if you don’t look closely.
Yeah right!
Thanks Ammon
I love lady bugs! Poor little guy though. Thanks for this image, Nandini!
“Nandini”, You must be in a great hurry since you typed the wrong name. But thank God I knew that name, else I would have confused it with some word and would have searched it all over for its meaning.
Thanks for the like and comment Katie
Very Cute Lady bug the star of the show
Haha, thanks for saying that. This was my first time in photography with the lady bug
Thanks Jakesprinter
When I was child, there were a lot of ladybugs around, but today, I think since the ecosystem already – you know what I mean – … they’ve become a rare sight
.
Yes might be. But it was wonderful to see it on my balcony. May be it had lost its way. Glad it came to me.
Thanks Cahya.
Very nice photo!
Thank you so much
Nandini great shot of that teeny Lady Beetle. She was trying to get her orange self hidden! Glad you stayed on her trail.
Yes she definitely was. I’m glad I did.
Thanks for your comment
Cute bug! And i can spot it right away because her color is pop
Cute isn’t it.
Thanks Mizz. Good to see your comment

I like how the colors look in this. Cool capture.
I’m glad you could notice that. Thank you
Nice one! She’s probably looking for somewhere safe to hibernate – at least that’s what they do over here at this time of the year.
Yeah may be, but it flew away very soon after that. I wish it had stayed.
Thanks for your comment
This is so awesome. Everything in details, that poor ladybird bugged by someone too obsessed with taking her photographs
Awesome right? That is the result of that bugging you just mentioned!
I stopped bothering it after a few minutes, Lee, and then it took its flight to unlimited surroundings.
Unlimited for her but limited or us…..now you have started bothering that poor bug and he has to stop to stare at you
Yup
Kabhi kabhi toh chalta hai na. I didn’t hurt it
And I know you will never hurt them
Yes!
