Ladybird

Wonderful sunny warm weather and the house walls & surrounding area are covered by thousands of ladybirds. Can't even sit outside with one's mouth open without consuming a few.

These examples are in a raised bed on tomatoes that seeded themselves during the summer. Not sure they will turn fully red before frosts but not a problem to ripen them indoors or perhaps make some green chutney. Angie has done a great job with toms & cucumbers in the greenhouse too. For the first time I have done NOTHING in there this year.
