Field Notes
Notes:
This is a spotting from last year, yesterday i saw another one so decided to post this here for an identification. This beautiful caterpillar was in my garden on the raspberry plant, I was wondering who or what was eating the leaves of my plants, now I found the perpetrator so gently removed him and dropped him of in the nearby forest.
Although i'm curious at it's next stage, moth or butterfly?
