Large White Caterpillars
A couple of large white caterpillars resting on the remains of a nasturtium leaf in the garden. The shed skins on it show that they are growing well.
Our tub of nasturtiums have become a miniature wildlife park with more blackfly (hunted by hoverfly larvae) and caterpillars than flowers. As I'm more of a wildlife photographer than a gardener we're just letting nature take its course.
