Unicorn caterpillar (Schizura unicornis), #8007

Fletcher Wildlife Garden

This caterpillar is doing its best to pretend it is part of the leaf, and doing a good job too. As a moth it is attractively patterned in shades of brown, cream, and other colours. For an image of the adult moth see: http://www.pbase.com/fwg/image/138934937

Canon PowerShot SX20 IS
1/400s f/6.3 at 5.0mm iso100 full exif
