Is it a snake, is it a worm? No, its a....

Mrs P was doing some weeding in the garden, until she spotted one of these that is!

She freaked, and came inside to get me as didn't know what it was.

Moved it to the now empty (apart from bolted broccoli) veg plot, then 2 seconds later she freaked again at finding another one. I can see several blips coming out of these in the next few days if they stick around.

I found it really funny that she thought all caterpillars were green ;)

Some really great identification sites out there. Found one site that had top 20 weird looking ones.

Have a look here


Oh, apparently its an Elephant Hawk Caterpillar.
