Burnet Moth Life Cycle (Dorset )

Six-spot (and some Five-spot) Burnet Moths were the commonest species around at most sites. On Chesil Beach, they were swarming in large numbers on the Viper's Bugloss. I recorded all the life cycle except finding eggs. Interesting that, at Cerne Abbas, they used the wire netting to suspend their cocoons.
