Harmonia axyridis
Asian Lady Beetles of varying colors. All colorings were white black and red. Was very interested in the color variations of these two
West central ga. These two were found mating on a common field weed (weed yet to be identified).
Weeks later several lady beetle larva casings were found on the same plant. This appears to be a favorable habitat for mating/maturing. If you look closely below the lady beetles it looks like there may be a lacewing egg sack on the same plant

@AshleyT Thanks so much for letting me know! :)Fingers crossed.
This same weed resulted in a place where I found multiple Lady bug larvae casings. Seems to be a popular plant.
Your spotting has been nominated for the Spotting of the Week. The winner will be chosen by the Project Noah Rangers based on a combination of factors including: uniqueness of the shot, status of the organism (for example, rare or endangered), quality of the information provided in the habitat and description sections. There is a subjective element, of course; the spotting with the highest number of Ranger votes is chosen. Congratulations on being nominated!
