A collection of ladybirds and bugs

Another really hot day but cloudy

Had breakfast, did the ironing, gardening and then phoned a friend whilst having my cup of coffee.  Later had lunch and then went for a short walk collecting litter.  Came home, collected my camera and set off out again, K phoned whilst I was out so we met up and carried on walking.  I was trying to capture a bee which flew off, fortunately for me, as I then spotted these ladybirds and further on this teasel in flower.  I think the teasels are such a pretty colour. Came home, had tea, watered the garden and spoke to my friend.
