Thanks Laura - and there's me thinking the Harlequins were holding the 2-spot for a post-hibernation snack! Vic ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, December 19, 2007 9:02 AM Subject: Re: [Adastra] odd Ladybird behaviour?
Dear Vic Sussex Wildlife Trust has received many calls and visits from members of the public about Ladybirds in 2007. I have seen several clusters of mixed species ladybirds - the most common mixtures have been of Harlequin, 2-spot and 7-spot ladybirds.

Just wondered if anyone else has encountered a similar situation? Recorded 57 hibernating Harlequin Ladybirds at my Uncle & Aunt's apartment at the weekend (sorry Henri & Penny, it's that one in Kent again). However, hidden away in one of the clusters of Harlequins was a single 2-spot Ladybird. Any similar sightings?
