With the very mild weather had an outbreak of harlequin ladybirds on the living room window (outside) yesterday. At one point there were about 15 of them wandering around.

Thanks john and n0b0 for looking and commenting - appreciated.

I know these harlequin ladybirds are not generally appreciated at least here in the UK but they do make good subjects and come in around 6 different colour patterns.
