Hoverfly and the ladybird pupae!

I was photographing the hoverfly and as I went to get a side view; I saw the ladybird pupae underneath.
Both oblivious to the other obviously and I didn't expect to get the shot of both!

good capture, there are so many of those ladybird larvae and pupae this year and I'm afraid they are mostly harlequins

A bit like human life. You just don't know what's there!
Fab shot as usual!
