  Ladybird pupae, from which adult ladybirds will soon emerge.

  Good guys!
  

  A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

  Ladybird pupae, they're good news. Leave them be and they'll turn into ladybugs and eat aphids.

  Thanks for your help, I can’t believe I haven’t seen that stage of the ladybird before.
