Where are they?
Wasps and Ladybirds, I have yet to see any of them this summer. Bee's are everywhere but the annoying wasp is nowhere to be seen. I've been waiting to show my young son a real Ladybird but no joy yet. Is it just me, I would like to know if I'm the only one.

Re: Where are they?
I haven't seen Ladybirds for YEARS, and for wasps, I've seen quite a few. Ladybirds must be becoming extinct!
