Hi! I'm Alex. I've created this blog because I love entomology. I use this blog as a nature diary, posting every find. There aren't just insects - there are all sorts of animals. So It's not strictly for Insects. If you have an interest in bugs, then you are more then welcome to contact me through the comments or Facebook page: Alex Sidney. And if you've got any interesting pictures you'd like me to see, please contact me. I may post them online here, with your permission. Enjoy! Alex Sidney

The Lifecycle of a Ladybird
Everyone knows the life cycle of a Butterfly and a Frog, but not that many people know the life cycle of a Ladybird. Here it is: First, as most insects, and Egg. Then, comes a Larvae that most people find around June/July, which is black, with orangy-yellow spots everywhere. Then, it turns into a Chrysalis, and after around a week or two, it emerges into a yellow Ladybird, which slowly changes colour into the common red Ladybird everybody sees. Here is a picture of the black Larvae:
