Geometrid moth caterpillar (Speranza exauspicata), #6292

Almonte area

I thought this colourful small caterpillar would be easy to identify, but not until I got help from Bug Guide (thanks John and Jane) did I find out what this is.

It's funny watching a looper move.
It would be interesting to know what it is.

it seems a natural representation of the Pi symbol, and so irrational, and difficult to pin down...a well-calculated shot though..
