We have just about finished harvest.
We are all spring barley here.
I've never seen so many ladybirds in the crop. The combine was covered in them and any heap of barley in the shed had a mass covering on top next day. Usually see a red one or a green one but not thousands, all a rusty brown/Orange colour.
Why is so many this year?? Just the hot dry year?
