I've noticed several in my garden today, none were as *ahem* energetic as your guys though!

I counted 100 ladybirds in less than a square metre the other day

Oh dear, Anchorman - how long did it take you count them? You could have spent the time weeding! (only joking - I'd rather count ladybirds any day)

I'm wondering if we'll have a plague of ladybirds this year - there were loads outside the other day. I'd guess most have overwintered very successfully because it's been so mild.

I hope it IS the 'year of the ladybirds' - great for gardens!

Hmm, well I don't know Sheilar - I remember a plague of them years and years ago in London, during a very hot summer - they were all so hungry they were biting people to see if they were edible, I remember the nips. They don't itch or sting or swell, but you do feel the little nip - something to look forward to!
