Polished Lady Beetle

Yes, that's corn growing in my flower box. How it got there is a different story... A few days ago I found a cycloneda munda, or a Polished Lady Beetle (Lady Bug) consuming a stock full of aphid. Most Lady Bugs have black spots but this one was deep red and seemed pretty content with its own, personal corn stock.
