About this event

Winter is a great time to look for a range of beautiful and elusive ladybirds as they hibernate among gravestones and stonework. In this event, you'll join the hunt for these fascinating insects, finding and recording them for yourselves as part of the North East Ladybird Spot and Gosforth's Wild Web. How many species will you discover?
