Nature is amazing...

Laying yesterday in the sunshine to get some Vitamin D, I realised something moving very very slow next to me. I remembered seeing something similar before, however with a completely different look. It is a caterpillar with protective camouflage. I went to get my camera and unfortunately the sun suddenly disappeared behind clouds, hence it was difficult to get good quality photos. However I tried to make the best of the situation.

Here the caterpillar is hiding after I moved it a bit away


a slide wind moved it in a different position


but after a few minutes was action time..


and it tried to change direction
