Close up of a tiny Monarch caterpillar underneath a Milkweed leaf. These caterpillars are everywhere, beautiful butterflies soon!
I always go around when it's catterpillar time and collect them up. They get thrown over the fence, it's ok we dont have neighbours at the back.

MANY THANKS FOR YOUR KIND COMMENTS AND FAVS........TAKE A LOOK AT MY PHOTOSTREAM, FOR GENERAL PHOTOS OF NATURE AND WILDLIFE
This was one of a number feeding on a ceanosis in a neighbour's garden. The adult male of the species is easily recognisable by their rich reddish brown forewings. The females are virtually wingless and are unable to fly and remain close to the papal cocoon. They are found throughout Europe, temperate Asia, Siberia and the USA. As with most hairy caterpillars, the bristles are connected to venomous glands and function as a defensive barrier to would-be predators and cause irritation to the skin. They feed on the foliage of various trees and shrubs.

Normally found in their hundreds munching away on yellow-flowered ragwort, and their bold black-and-gold stripes make them easy to identify.
This year although there were hundreds of Ragwort plants only a few had caterpillars.

I think it's possibly a Brown Tail Caterpillar but please correct me if I'm wrong.
Standhisround and Jeff have probably correctly identified him as a Knot Grass Caterpillar
Another Sunday, another featherless day. This caterpillar of the Monarch butterfly is feeding on the flower buds of the Milkweed.

The only creature (that we can catch), so far, that I have had to say no to Evan holding due to the potential rash or irritation it can cause.
Caterpillar close up. Even thought they move so slowly, it's almost to fast if you are a newbee to macro.
