Caption - Piggy Back Rides

Thank you for the hilarious captions.

Dave : Which way is the sun?

One : I Believe I Can Fly (Song Title)
(Notice the bird shape on the left?)

One :  You are really disgusting! Please chew with your mouth closed!

Solitude Rising : I really suck at this game. I'll just enjoy watching the two of you poke one another with your antlers.

Cathy and Steve : Here, let me help you eat that.

One : You ain't heavy, you are my brother.

Autumn Belle : Tell me, how's the view up there?

Diana : Measurement for a new vest.

Lisa : Spring fever!

Dave : Buzz off! I was here first.

Squirrel Queen : Aw...there's nothing like a good back rub after a hard day at the office!

Cathy and Steve : Aren't you getting a little old for piggy back rides?

Here are 3 more photos.

Paper Wasp's Nursery

Paper wasp are insects that build their nests with papery material.

The nest is constructed by the collection of dead wood material and mixing them with saliva.

Amazingly, the nest is water resistant.

This particular nest suspended from a ficus tree branch in my garden.

The nest is a nursery with one larvae to each cell.

I could see the larvae move in and out.

Wasps are considered beneficial insects by gardeners.

The larvae are fed on chewed up caterpillars.

Adults wasps themselves feed on nectar.

I observed that the wasp occasionally push the larvae back into the cell with their legs.

I took this shot because it looked cute.
I am selecting this bum shot to enter  Picture This Contest at Gardening Gone Wild.

An adult admiring the baby.

(Just kidding.)

When a wasp from another nest flew over, they fought.

The adult wasps are very protective and one stared at me with a very stern face.

I thank them for not stinging me.

I guess they did not feel threatened.

Life Cycle of Ladybugs

This small yellow, creature was found moving on my mulberry leaf.
At first, I thought it was a caterpillar...with legs.

Actually it is a larva. A rather long one indeed.

After 3 weeks of being a larva, it turns into a pupa.

 A vast transformation happens in just 7 days.

A yellow, spotless ladybug emerges...

Very soon, they would lay eggs and the cycle continues...

Oval-shaped eggs in upright clusters.

These spotless yellow ladybugs feed on mildew which is sometimes found on the underside of mulberry leaves.

The red spotted herbivorous ladybug above feeds on leaves and their favourite in my garden seem to be tomato leaves.

This red, shiny carnivorous ladybug is all gardeners' darling. They enjoy hanging around my chilli plants.

There are thousands of different species of ladybugs in the world and there are at least 3 types in my garden. How about you? What bugs do you see in your garden?
