#ragworth
Goodnight from The Fall of Frogs pub, where regulars are acutely nervous at news that Old Mother has returned to Long Thurlstone. Goodnight from Tilly Ragworth, carefully picking gravel and thorns from her feet after sleepwalking to Pennyhill Copse again. Goodnight from Hookland,

Decided to leave two buachalláns (ragworth) grow away in a flower bed, in the hope that I might again see what I used to call 'Kilkenny caterpillars' (cinnabar moth). This fella showed up today. Suddenly, I feel like a kid on Christmas morning! #nature

Morning. Good for the ecosystem, highly poisonous but beautiful field of ragworth discovered walking through my acreage.

Although an allotment is an allotment, mine is as near as I can get it to the countryside in disguise. Have been watching out for Cinnabar moth caterpillars and today I found some, not many, and not yet large - but there they are on a ragwort plant.

RTed this and definitely typed Ragworth... someone tell the typesetters.

They were just hanging out to dry after the soaking they got yesterday.

Couple of those red and black moths around this evening.

Prob a Cinnabar Moth as we have ragworth here

Out for a walk and I was annoyed at the amount of ragworth (buchullawns). One of our group told be about a caterpillar I’d never heard of that only eats ragworth and suddenly I was seeing them everywhere. One of the reasons we see things as weeds is that we are trained to see processes not systems

I wasn’t being serious. The days of the Gardaí cycling around rural areas with a notebook, writing down ragworth offenders are long gone.

I'm from Stockton and I'm happy to believe a psychotic faint mouse roamed Ragworth and Hardwick.

All the non-psychotic ones probably got their heads kicked in.

I grew up on a farm in Sligo where we spent days picking buachallán (ragworth) from newly mown hay & burning it before the seed spread. I remember it listed on a notice in local post office as one of weeds that a landowner could be penalised for not controlling, as per the Noxious Weeds Act 1936

I had to look it up, but insects do like ragworth.
