Today's #MothOfTheDay is a caterpillar on the comfrey in the garden yesterday afternoon
SCARLET TIGER
Callimorpha dominula
The moth picture is what it turns into (taken from my feed from last year)

@hastingsmothman@mastodon.green Scarlet Tiger is one of my favourites. it's like the slightly less "sleeper build" version of the Red Underwing.

@hastingsmothman@mastodon.green Very exciting. Their flight is spectacular.
