It's always fun to meet ladybugs, I love the metallic colors on their bodies. Ladybugs are known as environmentally friendly insects because these insects do not harm humans.

A round, convex shield-shaped insect with a shiny metallic orange color. Everyone knows this insect as the hibiscus herlequin bug or cotton herlequin bug, they come from the genus Tectocoris. There are several types and shades of colors that I have found such as orange, red, blue and green. But the orange color looks very exclusive.

I found this ladybug playing on the flower plants in my yard. This beetle has a very attractive and beautiful appearance with a blend of orange on its body and a green head.
