Butterflies and Moths: Drinker Moth Caterpillar and Small Copper Butterfly

A Drinker Moth caterpillar

(Euthrix potatoria)

Minsmere, 2 June 2013


I know the caterpillar above is far from hidden, but do take a look at this extraordinary article on caterpillar camouflage.


We saw our first Small Copper butterflies at Minsmere on 26 May 2013.
