Heysham Nature Reserve 

This was actually located last weekend by one of the young naturalists with the Family group day. It is a Water Ladybird, not generally uncommon, but I can't say that I've seen one before (MD). Thanks to Emma for the picture.

Water Ladybird - as the name suggests, normally found near water
This one was spotted (sorry about the pun!) from the wooden viewing platform
