I wonder what it thinks it's doing?


This video clip of a ladybug chasing sprinkles fascinates me. I wonder what it thinks is going on? Is it trying to eat the sprinkles, or play with them, or simply figure out what they are?







I guess a ladybug's brain is even smaller than a sprinkle, so perhaps I'm being presumptuous in wondering what it's thinking!

  1. Ladybugs eat other bugs. Most likely he thinks it's a bug and tastes it then finds out it's not. Explains why he goes to all the different ones.
