Cinnabar Moth Caterpillar
Been to Allonby to take photos of the curved humpty back road bridge for a project I am doing with Allonby Photo Group. While there I went for a look on the nature reserve as I'd been told there were Lizards about, I didn't see any.
I did see and got photos of a couple of different types of Butterfly.
I was amazed to see the Ragwort looking bare but then saw these caterpillars on some. Looked it up when I got home and find it is the caterpillar of the Cinnabar Moth, introduced to some countries especially to control the Ragwort. Could do with some of these crawling around our Paddock.
