What a spectacular caterpillar! I really hope you know what this is - I would not look forward to trying to collect it tomorrow - those spines and the bright colours sort of say 'danger' to me. I think I saw it yesterday in the same spot - would it be about to pupate? I have a few more photos, if necessary
