Thanks for your comments Marybells and Driad.
I've seen variations in color and patterns on what we usually call Ladybugs here in the states. The pattern on this little Ladybird is fairly common at least here in Southern California.

Hey neighbor,

Yes, before you know it the millions of aphids will be out.
