It's because wildlife is in 'catastrophic decline', but being
left-brainers with a wide POV and in the spirit of things able to see

Global warming.

Really? Well are you absolutely sure of their identity, they are not the
only red moths and butterflies about. Besides the only main reason for
turning into butterflies and moths seems to be to get their legs over as it

So one assumes that next season we will have a lot of caterpillars noshing
the plants.

The climate/weather is getting a bit warmer (*), so butterflies
that people in Southern England have been used to are now
moving North. Next stop Shetland.
