Description
Sevenspotted Lady Beetle,Coccinella septempunctata(Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) taking shelter from an ice storm we had. I found her in my backyard on our trampoline while out looking for icicles and whatever else tickled my fancy to shoot. I thought she had froze to death but, I was wrong after I took my pics I brought her inside in case I wanted to take more later. After a few minutes I noticed her tooling about my computer
