Caterpillar ID Help Needed Please

[clairescavys]

Hi everyone

I spotted this 'lovely' looking caterpillar (photo below) outside the entrance to the East Hide at Minsmere, but after trying to research what type of caterpillar it is, I have drawn a blank.

If anyonoe out there can help ID this caterpillar, I would be very grateful.

Many thanks

Hi Dogghound, thanks very much for your help.

I've got another caterpillar photo, not sure what it is. If anyone out there can help ID this one, I'd appreciate it. Many thanks!

I don't know what the moth is but nice photos, I haven't seen any caterpillars this year, on a miniscule one, and a dead one Good luck finding out what it is

Hello clairescavys,

Your second picture is the larvae of The Large White Butterfly.

Hi Stefan, thanks for your good luck wishes. It's a shame you haven't had much luck with seeing caterpillars this year.

I've been lucky to see a few caterpillars this year, I suppose we're lucky down here in East Anglia!
