And that's way too much of a coincidence to be an accident. Also, ladybugs are known as 'biological pest control agents'; thus the reason for Ms. Kelly's note next to them reading 'control methods'.
In other notes; the two pictures at the top of the page are of orchids, and I haven't yet figured out why they're there. And then, in the upper left corner, there's this pic: And I've got no idea what that's supposed to be. Any ideas?
Ooooooh, nice going Keyi! I didn't draw the connection between ladybugs and aphids.
I'm not sure about the orchids... I'm off to do a little sleuthing. (Avoiding my homework assignment. lol.)
Also, that thing in the corner... is it new? I don't remember seeing it there before. I'm not sure what it is either -- it almost looks like some sort of larva. The url tag calls it "en."
I'm off to see what I can see...
Edited: to note that aphids infest and eat orchids -- more accurately, they suck the fluid from the orchids. Still working on the "en."
Edit #2: to say that although I haven't found the exact picture to verify it, I have found pics of ladybug larva
http://www.hortnet.co.nz/key/images/lar ... brdlv5.jpg and lacewing larva
http://www.just-green.com/product_thumb ... =160&h=105 -- both of which feed on aphids. Could either of those be what's in that second pic?
Edit #3 ...Last edit, I promise! Did you notice that the thing up in the corner is a drag-and-drop item? I went to try clicking on it, and the thing moved into the center of my page.
I also had a thought about the "en" label on it... could it be part of a larger picture that ultimately makes up an enso?
