Ladybirds are among the most popular of British insects. This course aims to find as many of the 26 regular species as possible within the two days and give an insight into the fascinating lives of these colourful beetles. What they eat, what eats them, how to find them and where to find them are covered. With just a little luck on our sides we could find 23 of the 26 species of ladybirds occurring in the UK.

This Ladybird course runs from 9am to 5pm both days and includes lunch at a local public house.
