Sphinx moth caterpillar, possibly Hummingbird Sphinx (Hemaris thisbe), #7853

This gorgeous creature was found by Lesley and photographed by Diane. When I congratulated her on finding such a cool looking caterpillar, Lesley said "It was more a case of the caterpillar finding me because I looked down to see it on the back of my gardening glove!". It was found during the Wednesday evening work on the Butterfly Meadow.
