On a walk at the end of last week I came across this Ladybird
It is a colour variant of the harlequin Ladybird (Harmonia axyridis) which first appeared in the UK in 2004 but has rapidly spread to colonise much of the country.
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.
