Nesting season is not for amateurs.
And there is a reason the ladybirds today are so choosy.
After all, it only takes a second to make an egg, but it takes weeks to guard all that round white cuteness.
And it takes even more weeks to feed those precious soft downy mouths….teach them to preen….to fly….to forage….to make adorably cute eggs of their own….
Raising eggs is definitely a job for two.
And it all starts with nest defense.
The best nest offense is a good nest defense, as the saying goes.
When you show the ladybirds you’ve got what it takes to keep the poachers out and the eggs in, you can bet you’ll have a nest full of feathers come spring!
