16 spot Ladybird

Pete,

I was pleased to find a 16 spot Ladybird in the garden the other day.

The 16 spot Ladybird is much smaller than the commonly seen 7 spot ladybird. and can be found in southern and central England with a few records on the coast of Devon, Cornwall and Wales. In winter it can be found in large aggregates of individuals.

I am semi-retired after a career in medical sciences. I now work from home doing independent research and consultancy amongst other things. One advantage of this is that I do have time to indulge my interests including birdwatching, natural history, steam trains and history particularly ancient history.
