Ladybird

'Ladybird! Ladybird! Fly away home,
Night is approaching, and sunset is come:
Felt, but unseen, the damp dewdrops fall.
This is the close of a still summer day;
Ladybird! Ladybird! haste! fly away!'

Poem by Emily Jane Brontë

Coccinellidae - commonly known as Ladybugs in North America and Ladybirds in Great Britain and other parts of the world, are generally considered beneficial insects, because many species prey on herbivorous hemipterans which are agricultural pests. Many coccinellids lay their eggs directly in aphid colonies in order to ensure their larvae have an immediate food source.
Coccinellids traditionally were associated with luck, love, fertility and prophecy and the term "Ladybird" is used for someone one's affectionated to, such as a loved one.
