Bad news in the house and garden...not to be confused with our "ladybugs"...
"The Asian lady beetle is a predator of a number of pest insects, especially aphids, but it has become a problem because it has overtaken native species. It is also this species of ladybug that may occasionally bite the hand that lovingly thinks it is playing with one of the harmless native ladybugs....Asian lady beetles are typically somewhat more aggressive than native varieties and may bite if they land on the skin. Though the bite is not very painful, some people can have allergic reactions, ranging from eye problems like conjunctivitis ("pink eye") to hay fever, cough, asthma, or hives."
Anuradhapura is a major city in Sri Lanka. It is the capital city of North Central Province, Sri Lanka and the capital of Anuradhapura District. Anuradhapura is one of the ancient capitals of Sri Lanka, famous for its well-preserved ruins of an ancient Sri Lankan civilization. It was the third capital of the Kingdom of Rajarata, following the kingdoms of Tambapanni and Upatissa Nuwara.
The city, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, was the center of Theravada Buddhism for many centuries. The city lies 205 km (127 mi) north of the current capital Colombo in Sri Lanka's North Central Province, on the banks of the historic Malvathu Oya. It is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world and one of the eight World Heritage Sites of Sri Lanka.
It is believed that from the fourth century BC until the beginning of the 11th century AD it was the capital of the Sinhalese. During this period it remained one of the most stable and durable centers of political power and urban life in South Asia. The ancient city, considered sacred to the Buddhist world, is today surrounded by monasteries covering an area of over sixteen square miles (40 km²).

SI Paku Lanang was a song sung by Nona Asiah in 1961 in the film SI Tanggang. This song was taken and re-arranged in the form of Inang beat and is a new creation based on the dance moves that has been reconstructed with the use of the fan as props accompanying this dance. The dance is one of the most popular dances of the National Cultural Complex (Komplek Budaya Negara).

This is a smart 'mom' cause' she has no parental duties. These birds belong to the cuckoo family in which the female would lay its fertilized eggs in other non-cuckoo species and let the host take care of their offspring. Incidentally human do that too, in their own ways.
These folks though, are very common but they rarely expose themselves fully in the open.
