This hairy beast was found sauntering down our driveway, just before a car was due home. Removed for safety and identification ... Drinker moth, Euthrix potatoria caterpillar :- It is probably about to pupate, given how lethargic it was, and especially with darkened colouration. Released to some nice long grass that isn't going to be cut ... note : the grid is 5mm squares
