Ladybird stowaway!

We're taking a long time to get anywhere at the moment...so many ladybirds to stop and say hello to; or save from the perilous path of someone's bike; or count their many spots. One even hitched a ride with us. Has everyone else been spotting the ladybirds coming out of hibernation? You can't trust a weather forecast but we'd trust a ladybird - summer must be very close!
