Description
Thanks to Etienne and Michel for having identified and sent to me the link to the description of the caterpillar I posted yesterday (slow acrobatics-4).
This is a Tyria jacobaeae (Cinnabar moth).

In today's picture these caterpillars are eating ragwort, their favorite food.

Moi qui pensaitqu'il n'y avait que les sauterelles pour tout dévaster sur leur passage... Bien vu et bien photographié ! :~)

Lovely capture and as I said before people hate caterpillars on their plants but love the butterflies and moths!

Fantastic capture! My daughter would love to have a few of these. She loves watching them go through their stages. Lovely work!
