Cinnabar Moth - Tyria jacobaeae (#587)
This strikingly-coloured Cinnabar Moth, with its amazing vivid red on the wings, was resting up on the leaves of the Pyracantha. This moth is usually associated with Ragwort, which is the food-plant for its yellow & black striped caterpillars. It’s a pretty widespread moth in Britain, but mostly seen in more open habitats than my garden.
