Posted: Tue Apr 02, 2019 8:38 am
A Great Spotted Cuckoo is visiting the Glanville Fritillary sites on the IOW, and is eating many larvae an hour, it has been at Bonchurch and Wheeler's Bay, the one year we get a mild winter and a warm February & March this happpens, with the loss of most of the mainland colonies one of our rarest butterflies is in danger again. Hopefully the National Trust are taking some measures to protect at least some of the larvae.
