>>1810554and from my trip last weekend in the sacramento mts in the lincoln national forest, found multiple of young junipers and pinions with swarms of ladybugs on them at the ridge top i camped on.
couldnt find anything about the phenomena, just other types of ladybug swarms (different seasons or as a flying swarm). anyone know anything about this? they were all generally still with a couple moving a little, not like actively swarming.
