Holly Blue Baby Face

The tiny black face is usually tucked into the body when the caterpillar is not feeding. This is the first time I've really had a chance to capture it.
Most caterpillars seem to be a head with a body attached, this is the other way round.
It's about 17/18 days old now, so much more visible and "active" spending time on the leaves as well as the buds.
