Waiting for siblings?

JJ and I walked up to the village and back over the ridge this morning as I needed to get some exercise.  I need to get back to some sort of fitness after all the inactivity caused by the hot weather.

The insects are really busy around the ivy bush up the road and I did try to take a few pictures, but it was too manic to risk standing close for long, and they were coming and going far to fast.

Instead I settled for a very patient ladybird larvae waiting for its siblings to hatch.  Or is that my imagination running away with me.

My new OM-1 has started playing up.  The screen freezes and I have to take the battery out and reinsert it.  Not an issue I need.
