Hi all. I am now set up on that other place with the cheerful blue butterfly as its symbol. Here is an Adonis Blue from Wilts in August to mark the occasion. Hope to see you all there!

I beat this Orange Ladybird from a Scots Pine in Church Stretton on Wednesday. No sign of any of the pine specialists though.

Highlights from a day spent ladybird recording. Especially good to catch up with a few of the conifer specialists in Cream-streaked, Striped and 18-spot 🐞🔎 #ladybirds

Red-patched Ladybird, Nephus redtenbacheri, vacuumed from grass in Church Stretton today. At about 2mm long, one of the smallest of the British Micro Ladybirds.

A great record & stunning photo of 13-Spot Ladybird by Larry Doherty, recorded from Cabragh Wetlands, Co. Tipperary back in September. This species only has 39 records in our Ladybirds of Ireland dataset, so always nice to see submissions for this species. #LadybirdAtlas2025

Several Orange Ladybird (Halyzia sedecimguttata) tapped from Ivy today at Coolmelagh Wood near Carnew, Wicklow. Targeted surveying to find Ivy Ladybird (Nephus quadrimaculatus) new to Wicklow drew a blank. Ivy LB known from Wexford, Carlow & Kilkenny.

Five 16-spot Ladybirds (Tytthaspis sedecimpunctata) and a 22-spot Ladybird (Psyllobora vigintiduopunctata) tapped out of Black Horehound at Fishers Green, Essex today. No sign of any Striped Shieldbugs during a visual search. #UKLadybirds #LeeValleyWildlife #EssexWildlife

Tijereta, Doru sp., Dermaptera, Forficulidae. Insectos inofensivos que muchas personas le atribuyen poseer sustancias tóxicas que pueden ser inyectadas con estructuras en forma de pinza (cercos), presentes en el ápice del abdomen. Esto es falso, no ocasionan accidentes médicos.
