Ladybug Munching On Aphid



Here’s something I’ve never been able to photograph before.  It’s a Ladybug eating an Aphid.

The strange thing about this was that the Aphid was still alive and moving, while the Ladybug was eating it (I’m assuming it was eating it, maybe it was just holding it).

After a few moments of watching this, another Ladybug strolled by and decided to watch the event.

Shannon - That’s cool. I’ve never actually seen a ladybug eat an aphid before. We never had great success with the ladybugs we brought in for our aphid covered milkweed.April 11, 2010 – 10:37 pm
