Ragwort, almost eaten by cinnabar moth caterpillars

Ragwort, almost eaten by cinnabar moth caterpillars

Yet another visit to the ragwort plant in the corner of the Barley Field. This time, three days after the previous view, more than thirty cinnabar moth caterpillars were visible, now showing much clearer because they had eaten almost all the foliage and flowers on the plant.
