Any caterpillar experts here?

What is this very pretty one please?

[v8will]

Thought this was a thread about a brand of heavy machinery......

[sinizter]

One which causes a lot of itchiness ?

Proper déjà-vu moment here so I'll post what I posted last time:
If you really want one the D11R is quite tasty,

But personally I'd got for an mt975c

But that's just a pastiche of the stx535

It the caterpillar of a Vapourer moth - the adults are a bit bland as moths go, little brown ones.

Thank you

Breaking up hard ground, so you can shift it with the blade on the next pass.

You need to work on your macro photography skills though.

Very common, I think the female is flightless too.

lol how do you even know this kinda thing?

[markmullen]

Its a rare shallow depth of field moth

[ali_kat]

I couldn't stop the twig it was on moving in the breeze long enough to try my macro lens so that was the best I could do

Nice Ripper!

[Rarefied Brains]

Impressive photography if you don't mind me saying so

[Flintstone]

The shrub is Pyracantha (Firethorn).

Might be vague, but whilst we're on caterpillars:

When I was a youngun, we used to find these big green ones, which had massive pincers on one end of their body (rear i think) and tended to squirt green goo if you prodded them.

Hawk moths are big and green with a single 'sting', not sure they squirt green unless you squash them though!
