Caterpillars by roachling

Caterpillars

I still haven't looked at the photos from the last couple of weeks yet but I did at least manage to take one today! I spent the day restoring order to my world - that means 9 hours of washing and cleaning (it takes a long time to unpack and restore order when you have OCD!).

On a trip to the washing line, I spotted a caterpillar on a rose... then another.. and another and then realised it was covered in them - just this one rose, even though there are many more roses in the garden. I can count about 50 of them in this photo and this is just one bit of the rose!

They're not butterflies or moths though, these little creatures will become rose sawflies.
