Ladybugs in pine trees

[QuietOne]

I'd wondered what a ladybug was doing on a bunch of developing pine cones. Then I saw the buffet. I predict there will be some very well-fed ladybugs over the next few days. In fact, since the second one didn't move, I'm wondering if it fed itself into a stupor.

Cool. I've been kinda fond of the ladybug. :)
