Yea I think interpreting this song too much is a little absurd - it's most likely just a nice, happy way to end the album (they do this sort of thing frequently, especially in the crane wife where the majority of the subject matter is extremely lofty) and there isn't quite enough content to really guess at the symbolism. Sure, ladybird could refer to his love but havn't you ever sat outside on a warm, sunny day and listened to the birds? It's beautiful. All that matters I think here is the tone of the song.
Most of Her Majesty was pretty obscure - I like to think of Colin's voice more as an instrument on this album.
