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!

PETA one more really good idea hijacked by what you so accurately term "whackjobs" ... what next, humane treatment for crab lice So it's ok to bomb the living shlt our of Iraqui and Afghani civilians in the process of making them free, but the housefly is sacrosanct (There's this Monty Python song going thro' my head: "Every sperm is sacred ... etc.") I wonder what PETA thinks about burly Newfoundland fishermen swatting baby seals with clubs
