Ladybird

She certainly landed in the right spot...........

Oh that's great Eileen, there aren't many about are there, probably all the rain! Excellent place to land LOL

Lovely picture like your little moto plaque too, well captured.

thanks guys.
this is the first one ive seen in the garden so far this yr Pam

aww well done little ladybird..

it couldn,t have landed in a better place Eileen .I

I have to tell you that they have had an invasion of Ladybirds on our coast , it was so bad that it is effecting the tourist trade as people don,t want to get out of their cars , they have been walking on them and crushing them underfoot .. your little one has had a lucky escape !

Well I m so susprised Amy I was only saying today that I havent seen any in the garden this year, Poor things being walked on, makes me feel so sad.

thanks guys.

my god Amy, thats awful . must be thousands of them over there

We were on the coast once before when it happened , it isn,t very nice , you can,t escape from them they are all over you ... billions .. they do have to sweep them up ....
I,ve been trying to find the newspaper article but can,t ,,

might be able to fins something on the net about it, maybe BBC online

It was mainly at Cromer Norfolk Eileen if you are looking , I will have a look as well in a min. .. ..

If you google ladybird invasion cromer norfolk , you will get it Eileen , The EDP 24 newspaper is the local one ...:o)

oh wow Amy, just watched a video of them on BBC news online, thousands upon thousands of them

Glad you saw them Eileen , it,s amazing isn,t it . and to think we normally get excited when we see one ....LOL...

I remember once being on the beach when there were thousands of Starfish covering the beach it was weird ......... !

Very cute photo Irish :)

nice shot ...

thanks Tracey and Mariv

Starfish Amy,,,,,,, that must have been a sight to see

It was Eileen .. apparently freak waves scoop them from the bottom of the ocean and deposit them on the shore ,

lovely ladybirds, but think some people have a little to many at the moment

Sorry Eileen playing catch up .. like you not seen many and that s amazing Amy hope they are the British variety and not the Spanish one .

I've had a few on my balcony & I've seen a few around town in the last few weeks. I was wondering, while the little creature was crawling over my hand, just how the Harlequin ladybird can be distinguished from our native species?

I am remembering, while I write this, a documentary on Ladybirds perhaps last year. It may have been on the BBC but I can't recall now. I had no idea there were so many species of them!

how sweet i do love a pretty little ladybird.

hardly a ladybird in my garden this year either, wonder why Norfolk?

maybe they fancied a holiday there lol

Think I'll join them:-)

Bless
