Picture of Elephant Hawk-moth Caterpillar

This Elephant Hawk-moth caterpillar (Deilephila elpenor) was found in my back garden by my grandson Elliot. The caterpillar was feeding on the leaves of a Fuchsia bush. I had set Elliot a challenge to find as many insects and creatures as possible. He found the Elephant Hawk-moth caterpillar within two minutes (I had never seen one before) and then went on to find a grasshopper, a newt, several frogs, tadpoles, butterfly and a large dragonfly. The “I Spy” champion found them all within thirty minutes.
