Found this Harlequin lavra munching Aphids on my stone wall. The lighting is harsh, but the photo is good.

Good shot- think harlequin ladybird larvae eat just about anything on legs their size or smaller (including each other).

Thanks for the comments. It's alway appreciated. For some reason, the Aphids love the last bit of sunshine that hits my stone wall late in the day. Maybe it's the heat that's absorbed by the rocks during the day.
