    Very sad, saw one of them on my driveway this morning, unfortunately he'd been partly trodden on, probably after falling from the large Oak tree out front.

    Just noticed that you have one of your Tussock Caterpillar photos on UK Safari Beryl.

    Yes. I have been with UK safari for about 4 years .He has a video of the little Egret and and a female Orange tip butterfly and just asked for a hi res photo of the Cormorant with the Eel.
    One of the caterpillars On UK Safari is the Lime Hawk moth . It's in the TVB forum as are the others.
    The Pale Tussock is one of those abov and there is a video of it in the TVB video section . It's a lovely little caterpillar
