Ladybird Alert (13): Harlequin Ladybird Pupa Update


These are two updated photos of the Harlequin Ladybird pupa in my Suffolk garden. It was very warm yesterday when we came in from the Olympic torch parade on the Waterfront, and the pupa was moving about quite significantly, with the head end secure on the post, and the abdomen lifting and falling. I wonder if it will still be there today ...
