LadybirdEmerging

A few weeks ago I posted pictures of a Ladybird freshly emerged from its pupa, but now I've caught one in the act! This one doesn't look like a Harlequin (no 'M' on its forehead) and its wing cases look much softer with a rough surface, so presumably the previous subject had already had a little time to dry out and harden up when I first found it. Though it might not have been fully baked, this one wasn't lacking in energy and scuttled off quickly.

  1. Those are amazing pictures, I’ve never seen that happen. I get awfully confused about which are Harlequin and which are native. Are the ‘foreigners’ really a threat to ours?

  2. I’m not sure just how much of a threat they are, but they are here to stay. Personally I still see all sorts of ladybirds in my garden.

  3. Yes, I doubt that they’d be eradicated. I hope they learn to live together.
