Bad hair day???

What a foul day.....showers??? more like constant rain, with torrential downpours!!
Consequently I haven't bothered to go out to get any pics, as rain is not good for DSLR's!
Today's shot is a Yellow tail moth - Euproctis simillis larva.
I have caught the adult moths in my moth trap, they are pure white with a bright yellow tip to the abdomen, and feign death if you catch them to avoid being eaten! The larva as you can see is equally striking, and very hairy!!
I am going on a Horsham Natural History society walk tomorrow to try to find and photograph the burnt orchids, hopefully this year will be more productive than last year.
Will let you know tomorrow!
