Got very warm this week for a short time with temperatures reaching 26~27℃ in some parts of Japan. Didn't last long but a foretaste of summer. Everything seemed to wake up with a bang. The trees were greener, flowers burst into bloom, in particular the yellow nanohana (rape?) and there were ladybirds (tentomushi) everywhere.
We get them in all kinds of colors here. The usual red with black spots, a lot of the black with red spot type and on rare occasions the yellow with black spot variety. This one I found raiding a poppy for pollen. Not very noticeable until I took a macro shot and saw the yellow powder covering its back.
