I discovered this little bugger munching happily on our Geraniums, perfectly camouflaged by its green colour. The way this caterpillar "loops along" impressed me, so I decided to place it on a slightly more contrasty background in order to photograph it. This caterpillar most likely belongs to the family Noctuidae and grows up to 40mm long in size.
