Those are not ladybugs, they are the invasive, pesky Japanese Beetles.

They look at little alike, but are very different.

They are ladybugs, Japanese beetles don't swarm.

Here is some red Tubaria punicea that was found in Soquel Demonstration Forest this Sunday by martystu.  It's a rare species.



spores



Mycena sp., CptnGarden collection (location:  hidden villa)





I thought this was Craterellus when it was found it but now I am not so sure.  (location: Soquel demo forest)



Mycena sp.



Helvella?

Its weird to see something like this growing off of wood, but all of these that were found were growing off wood.

the japanese beetle http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/dd/Popillia_japonica.jpg/180px-Popillia_japonica.jpg


as for ladybugs, i callem bean beetles
Although native species of coccinellids are typically considered benign, in North America the multicolored Asian lady beetle (Harmonia axyridis), introduced in the twentieth century to control aphids on agricultural crops, has become a serious household pest in some regions owing to its habit of overwintering in structures. It is similarly acquiring a pest reputation in Europe, where it is called the "Multicoloured Asian Ladybird"

I love that part of the country. Sooo very pretty.
That day we found so many cool mushrooms
and herbs. I see the lady bug pictures came out
really nice. Lets see that one gelatinosum that
CptnGarden found with its own little piece of
land attached! Thanks again for the adventure Alan.
Good Hunting.

There is a lot of Lithocarpus densiflorus, that is the tree that the black chanterelles grow with.  Interestingly that is the only Oak out here that is not in the genus Quercus. 

I also saw quite a bit of Pseudotsuga menziesii and Sequoia sempervirens!

Yea it sure is. 

Here is some Geoglossum that Civ found.
