Some very good, and interesting shots there. Are they all British species or are there some European ladybirds in there as well? There are some there which I don't think I'd recognise as a Ladybird if I saw them, Cynegetis impunctata is one of them.

This year as I had the new camera I started paying more attention to Ladybirds (and most other insects) in the garden and I saw quite a few new species. Pine, 14-spot and Heather (id'd on WAB by you Paul) were all new for me. Also the moth trap attracted a Cream Spot and an Orange Ladybird, it's interesting to see what other insects are attracted to the light, assuming that's why they were there
