Re: Ladybirds

'76 must have been quite a year, merz. Has there been anything in the news about swarming this year?

Re: Ladybirds

We had a small swarm of Ladybirds this week, the same thing happened last year.

Last winter I had a row of them hibernating on the top/ inside of my back door frame. I hope they don't intended doing the same thing again this year, whenever we had a warm day some of them emerged into the kitchen.
I discovered they bite too !

Re: Ladybirds

Yes, they can give you a sharp little nip, can't they! Haven't seen any swarming here, but it's been unseasonably warm. Maybe later; did see a skein of geese flying South on Sunday.
