Subject: Palatability and Predation on Vanessa cardui

Can anyone point me toward published information on the palatability of 
_Vanessa cardui_ (larval or adult) to birds, and predators of the same, 
particularly avian?  

I have not turned anything up in searches of Agricola, the Biological and 
Agricultural Index, and the Fisheries and Wildlife Index, the most relevant 
databases available to me.

Thank you in advance,

Terry Morse
