Default Lily beetle

Peter Gibbs, weather man and gardener Tweeted that Lily Beetles are
about. I didn't believe him but went out to check mine which are only
just coming through the soil. Found and squashed, one lily beetle, but
it was on a peony, both in pots next to one another. Good thing they
are brightly coloured or I'd never see them.
I have a granddaughter who is very good at finding lily beetles!
