Congrats and kudos Edward on your first place win! Every year we get ladybugs who eat the aphids on our apple trees! They are a sure sign of spring! Well done - creative take on the contest! Sending you Easter blessings of joy!

Thank you so much, Sam:-) A ladybug once landed on my shirt out of nowhere. I gently picked it off and let crawl on my palm as I watched it in awe, then I placed it on a leaf. Such a strikingly beautiful insect. I just couldn't kill it. I hope you had a great Easter!

I thought for sure I commented to this before, but my comment is not here. Maybe another person wrote on ladybug? anyway, BIG congrats, Edward, on your well deserved win.
