Lol! π It seems to be mating season as there were a few of them indulging amidst the bushes. Ladybirds are one of my favourite insects with their varied colours and patterns.
π Thank you, Jane π They are quite amazing and beautiful insects, and to have them mating on my crab apple means more ladybirds and less aphids, hopefully.
Had to stop myself from making a colourful comment! But the ladybirds really are a beautiful colour! π

So they are really called “Ladybirds” where you live? I’ve always heard them called “Ladybugs” – perhaps we’re just abusing the Queen’s English.
