I was taking pictures of the mating ladybugs and did not notice the strange bug until I downloaded the pictures. What is it? Located in Dallas, Georgia.

Hi Lee,
Nice to hear from you again. We believe your Ladybird Beetles are Multicolored Asian Ladybird Beetles, Harmonia axyridis, which are highly variable in coloration. They are being stalked by an Ambush Bug. The Ambush Bug might soon have a meal. We are cross referencing your photo on several of our pages, including Bug Love and Food Chain.
