While sitting outside in the sunshine earlier, we found an actual real-life Hexbug! A little research suggested that it is, in fact, the lava of the much-malined Harlequin Ladybird. This species is non-native and has increased in numbers considerably in recent years, threatening the survival of many species of native ladybirds. It still looks like a Hexbug, though, which amused us all the same! I've put the photo in a lovely, calming heart, in case anyone is freaked out by bugs. Hearts make everything seem friendlier!
Wow that looks pretty unique, love the colouring

ReplyDeleteThat's so cool! We love finding insects and trying to identify them, there's so many species to go through. Yours is certainly impressive and very unusual :)
