Going.. gone!

It must have been the gorgeously warm afternoon, but the ladybirds were very active, frequently flitting from bush to bush. I think this is the first time I've managed to snap one with it's wings out and subsequently in flight.

I was surprised at how slow the shutter speed was for this burst shot - 1/160. I would have anticipated something much faster, given how good the light was and the relatively high iso I was using.
