  • [ARCHIVE] Episode 1: Coccinella septempunctata - The 7-Spot Ladybird
    The 7-spot ladybird was my very first episode and I've re-edited the audio and uploaded it again, which I will be doing for some of my older episodes, although it still sounds a bit weird in places, so I might update this file again in future as well. I used a variety of sources for this, including books by Richard Comont and Helen Roy. My instagram account was since hacked so the link is invalid, and my patreon account was deactivated. I think I've improved since I originally recorded this :D  - However, you can buy me a coffee at Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/hwabpodcast Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/hidden-wings-and-bloodlust/id1476595771 https://hiddenwingsandbloodlust.podbean.com/
