Coccinella septempunctata
I've been debating posting these: I've been raising them in a bowl on my desk after finding some eggs in a local park. Today they ate one of their siblings (I had 6 together.. bad idea, I know), and I have since raided the kitchen for more bowls to keep them separate.
Captivity; eggs found in an urban park
