    Just for completeness: We call them ladybirds in England.

    Thanks for the information, David.
    What do you call these others?

    According to Google, these are tiny bed bug eggs, which I found, I'm not quite sure how, stuck to the bark of a tree...

    Nice image. Think Google missed the id. Bed bugs can't live outside and their eggs are very tiny white things. At least that is what my searching found. Not sure what these are.
    Thanks,

    ¡Hola! I think the translator added "bed" bug on their own. From what I've seen, they may be eggs from some kind of "stink" bug...

    Neighborhood…

    I found this mushroom community lying on the ground, and took it home to take some pictures. After a few days, the little mushrooms were completely dry, and I thought they were dead. But they're really resilient, and with a little water, they were back in life in half an hour...

    And by the way, this last one is a GIF. You might have to tap on it to see it.

    Lovely lighting and composition. The contrast is dramatic. Well done.

    I've run into the same resiliency with fungi. Thought the tree limb I brought inside was dried out and dead after a few days. Put it outside in light rain and the beauty returned. Remarkable.
    Thanks for sharing,

    Fungi are certainly peculiar creatures: while some of their mushrooms are very resilient, able to adapt to anything, others are extremely delicate: this one was completely ruined in 24 hours...
