I'm sorry but not on my lilies!!
by

Scarlet lily beetle
(Lilioceris lilii)

These rather attractive looking beetles
are such a pest this year and I'm afraid
have to be destroyed...

great color and composition! And bit of voyeurism to make the image a bit more interesting ;)

it's a beautiful lily but boy those lily beetles sure are hard to get rid of. Good catch.

Lovely image. The orange flower looks great against the white background.

A little sexy don't you think? I like the white background for a change.
