I promised to show you who the caterpillar was and here it is unexpectedly flying around my bathroom last night.
My hitchhiking friend turned out to be a double spot of gold moth, who is unusual for this area, but that might just be because it is under recorded, as it usually flies in October/November.
So here is my Christmas spot of gold . Have a jolly day tomorrow or today depending on when your festive day may be!
Cathy's real country garden

Ohhh, what a beauty! He actually looks as if he’s made of real gold leaf. I wonder what your frankincense and myrrh will be? 🤣🤣🤣 Joyeux Noël!
