#107 of 365: Big Trees

Several years ago my college biology class went on a field trip to Calaveras Big Trees. While hiking around we started noticing millions and millions of ladybugs covering the pathways, bushes, trees. They were everywhere! It turns out that the ladybugs come there to hibernate every year. I remembered this and so Tamara and I wanted to try and go see them. We went to Big Trees but we didn't see one ladybug. I think the weather is still too warm and so they haven't started to hibernate yet. We had a great time regardless. The weather was gorgeous and the deciduous trees were turning colors.
