I was pleased to find a 14 spot Ladybird in the garden the other day. I initially thought it was a 16 spot, but the recorder has corrected the record to 14 spot.
The 14 spot Ladybird is much smaller than the commonly seen 7 spot ladybird. and can be found in southern and central England and Wales.
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.
