Any idea what this little beasty will be when it gets older?[img][/img]

Trigger's Brush

It's the first one I've seen like it. It just appeared on my bag at work.

Looks to be the White Marked tussock Moth and be imported from the states......... right genus, wrong species........doh

It is the caterpillar of The Vapourer moth Orgyia antiqua.

Carried it in full, then carry it out empty.

It's one of the strangest caterpillar's I've ever seen in the flesh.

So is it common or a rare sight?

From the link.

'The species is fairly common, especially in suburban habitats, over much of Britain, but more so in the south.'
