tiny but interesting looking caterpillar. I was actually attracted to the bit of matter above it, but I don't think its alive!

@KylieWaldon : looks alive to me, with a nice shelter to go back to hide in. Can you rear it in captivity to see what the adult moth looks like to identify the species?

If I had seen it I could have considered it but also that pic was from 2023! I will look out for future generations! :)
