Life Cycle of the Ladybird
I managed to see almost all of the life cycle of the ladybird today. First a larva, but I'm not sure of the specific type of ladybird.
Then I found several chrysalids actually hatching out - they are secured to the leaf at one end, and were arching as the ladybird emerged.
Then an empty chrysalid and a 22-spot ladybird (
Psyllobora 22-punctata)
