Cinnapillar.

3rd August 2012: Ragwort is very prominent on and around the marsh at the moment, and with ragwort comes the cinnabar catapillar. I was only saying this morning that there is not as many cinnapillars about this year, but I was wrong; there are hordes of them munching away at the bitter plant.
