| 2020: Brilliant Bugs (Illustrator - Richard Lewington |
They are all around us, brilliant bugs. The stamps are designed by Richard Lewington, illustrator of many insect guides, never wonder what that bug might be with a field guide to hand.

| 2018: Flora and Fauna (Design - Stiina Hovi) |
The flash of red on a stem and time to count the spots on a ladybird before she flies away.

| 1997: Insects (Design - A Ysttri) |
The full 7 spots can be seen here - Coccinella septempunctate, our most familiar ladybird, welcomed by gardeners and organic farmers for their voracious appetite for aphids. Even better the 7 spotted ladybird is considered lucky, although not for the aphid.
Sunday Stamps theme this week is - Insects - See It On A Postcard

Now, ladybugs I like!
It's nice to see the whole set of brilliant bugs (my dealer only had 2 of the postcards)
I have the ladybird spider in my Sunday Stamps post. We have a ladybug but the spots are different.
I wonder why everyone likes ladybugs and sort of hate the rest of insects, even benefical ones!
Beautiful stamps!!!
