Closeness, a photo by Fergiemoto on Flickr. (Click on image to enlarge).
Linking up with Camera Critters and Macro Monday.
Here is another close-up photo from the ladybird world. How does the saying go?…oh yeah…”two’s company, three’s a crowd!”
My response when I saw this was…”REALLY??!!??!!”

Super capture and a funny caption to boot!!!
Thanks David! This one caught me off guard!
For them, three is the best 😀 Awesome shot
It appears that way – to each his/her own! Thanks for the compliment!
What a fantastic and unique image. I love it! It made me smile 🙂
Thank you, Meanderer! Yes it is unique. I guess anything is possible, even in the insect world.
Amazing shot!
Thank you much!

had to chuckle at that one…great shot
I understand about the chuckling! Thanks so much!
Heehee!
I know – hee hee! Thanks for stopping by!
Perfect for this week’s challenge
I appreciate that! Thanks for visiting!
Woohoo! I laughed! What a wonderful “lady” bug-world!
I laughed too! Thanks for your comment, fellow Utahn!
WOW, I completely LOVE this shot. Spectacular capture!
Aww..thanks for that! I appreciate the comment!
Wow! 🙂
Thank you!!
Obviously not enough females to go around in ladybug kingdom – great shot
You may be right! Interesting thought. Thanks for the comment and visit!
What a great shot.
That threesome is probably a sight that you’ll never see again – nice to have it captured so that people will believe you when you say………..(well, you know what you’ll say when talking about ‘threesomes’ in the insect world).
I know – a threesome was a bit surprising to see from the ladybugs. Funny thing is I saw a threesome the same day but with a different type of insect. I’m not sure what was in the air that day. Thanks Victoria!
Cool picture! Beautifully composed too.
Thank you so much!
Very funny picture and post! Talk about being the fifth wheel!
I know! You never know what you might see! Thanks for your comment.

These are cute ladybirds doing a choo-choo train, not a threesome!
🙂
Yes, a choo choo train! The third one seems to enjoy being the caboose – or not! Thanks so much for stopping by!
Kinky!
I know! Who would have thunk! Thanks for stopping by!
…close encounters indeed! I bet you had a very lucky day after seeing that!!!!
Hmmm…I don’t think anything bad happened that day, so maybe it was triple lucky! Thanks Marina!
Oh goodness…well it if works for them.
I know, but actually, the third one got kicked off pretty quickly. I guess the other two really wanted their privacy! Thanks TBM!
Goodness gracious! How did you find those beetles on their triple ride? I love the beauty and magic of that shot! 🙂
I suppose it was just chance! I don’t ever remember seeing ladybirds doing THAT! Thank you for your nice comment.
Ladybird bacchanalia…
Very, very clever! I like the description! Thanks for the caption.
amazing! fantastic shot!
Thank you sooo much!
just awesome!
Thanks so much, Joanna!
It’s really nice moment. Beautiful and unique.
Unique for sure! It was a surprise, and then made me laugh. Thanks Cocomino.
Ummm..Really?!? This is great capture! I’d have to say it’s not a common sight. Beautiful photograph!
I know, that was my response also! Very odd. Thanks for the compliment!
Wow – another great close-up of these charming bugs.
amazing image…beautiful colour, fantastic clarity

Me too. Three is a crowd! But I admire the third bug’s persistence. That is one friend who will try his/her best to be a great friend. The middle, I felt bad for him/her. Seems uncomfortable. Beautiful shot as always!
Awesome shot!
funny crowd!
It’s interesting to say the least!! LOL It really is a great macro shot though. My one chance to capture them this year went wrong and now I haven’t seen any.
Great shot!!
Well, they didn’t know the paparazzi were around! Or would they care? Wonderful. You must be very patient and have to spend hours ‘finding’ an extraordinary shot like this!
I got nothing LOL!
Thanks for visiting my blog. Gave me the chance to see this up close and personal.
This one made me grin. Great shot!
Amazing capture!!
Hmmm. So man isn’t the only one to enjoy threesomes. Hmmm. lol
If one ladybird brings good luck… what happens if you run into three of them!!!
Ménage à trois! Fantastic capture. 🙂
Clear photo work; Lady Bugs are our garden friends to be protected…
GREAT photo, and I loved the caption.
That was funny….they have a very distinct odor and multiply rapidly especially two at a time I see.
first photo:
whiskey for that gang!
LOL!! Whiskey to celebrate!
