Caterpiller of the Cinnibar.

great pic

What a little beauty, Toto.

Great close up as usual Toto!

Fantastic photo :o)

Brilliant shot Toto, is this the moth that is found on Ragwort?

Lovely photo Toto they are a pretty moth, it does remind me of beetle juice though lol

Thank you everyone. Yes Pansy in fact it has been used to control ragwort as it is the food plant.

Not sure I like him Toto......bit waspy looking.......but a good photo.....

How can you say that. He's lovely. Thanks for your comment though.

I found one of these last year - without your knowledge around, I had to post a question about what it was!

Spritz. I wish that you and some of the others would not give me undue credit. I admit to liking the creatures of the insect world as I do all natural things and have an interest in them but I really don't have that much knowledge of them. Many times I have to look them up in a book to be able to identify them. By doing this I learn a little and like to share what I find with anyone who is interested.
It's people like you and other members of GOY that I consider to have knowledge of their subject and I have learnt so much already from reading your blogs and seeing your photographs. Must admit to not being able to remember much of what I've seen and read but thats my mind.
Thank you.

Brill photo.

Thanks Clarice.

Beautiful pic...I think you are being very modest, Toto...lol

Thanks Newfie. Modest I'm not. Trueful I am.
