In recent weeks, there's been an invasion / massive increase in numbers of ladybirds in my area. They are everywhere, probably due to it being breeding season or something like that. They're all over the ground, walls, fences and they seem to like travelling by bus too as they're all over the inside of the local public transport, calmly walking along.
A funny thing happened the other day when I visited some friends in Hull. I was travelling on the Humber Flyer, a bus which links Grimsby and Hull. A ladybird was mooching about on the sill of the bus window and it crawled onto the woman sitting next to me. She thought nothing of it and blew the creature off her hand. The ladybird came back. She placed the insect further away on the other side of the window sill. The bug returned. The lady continued to remove the bug from herself and it kept coming back (perhaps the ladybird liked her hairspray or perfume? ). This continued for a good third of the bus journey and it ended with the woman alighting from the bus after cursing the ladybird for coming back repeatedly. It was the funniest scene I've witnessed in a long time.
