Forget honorary mad scientistship, here's the opportunity (for those in Australia at any rate) to be a real mad scientist.
Catalyst is currently (and until April 2009) running a ladybird survey - and they want your help. Take a photo of any ladybirds in your garden, or local park etc etc =, identify them using the helpful gallery of common ladybirds on the Catalyst website, or using the CSIRO ladybird site, upload them, and you might win a copy of the lady bird book that the CSIRO site is based on.
Of the over 500 species of ladybird in Australia, only 268 of these have been identified. So go to my pretties, take photos and take part in science.
