Where ladybirds go in winter
In any dark and sheltered spot they can find, by the look of this lot revealed when I lifted these roofing sheets from their temporary resting spot.
Interesting mix of colours and spottage. Different species perhaps?

And a spider scurrying away. The different species are all friends too - that's nice. Hope you popped it back for them.
I certainly did. They deserve protection!
Yep, you've got at least 5 different types of ladybirds there Woody ....and, thankfully, none of them are harlequins!
We've one flying around our house at the moment... Must've come indoors for a nice warm place to spend winter.
Hehe, what a find! Nice to know they're tucked up safe for next year!
