| | | That Oak Eggar
10 days ago I found an Oak Eggar caterpillar (male) next to my brambles, I took him in for the night so I could photograph him the next day in sunlight, then after this I released him.
Today I found him again and I'm quite sure he has grown a bit (I know it might not be the same caterpillar but meh I can dream  ) he is now just over 5cm long. I was just wondering when does he pupate, and for how long? I want to know a little more about him.

Heya,
I'm glad I'm not the only one who wants to know!
