Good to see them out and about again, means Spring is on its way.

I think ours have black heads. Couldn't get the wings pulled in.

We have just been teaching our kids in school about ladybirds and how they are on the decline. Some of the kids were so upset that they are trying to persuade parents to by bug boxes etc to help the ladybirds atleast find a haven in their gardens.

I guess someone has to be first.

They look a bit different than ours, but I can't really say how. Who knows, there's probably doxens of species of them.
