Re: elephant hawk moth caterpillar home?
Found an Elephant Hawk Moth on one of my potted fuschias at 12.30 today. Apparantley fuschias are one of their favourite food plants. Since then it has eaten a whole wilting flower and a leaf.

I've never seen such a lovely caterpillar, but saw one of the moths many years ago.
