New Garage Buddy,
 

I have a new buddy to keep me company in the garage.

Jeff ( named after the earthworm Alien from Men in black) is an Elephant hawk Moth Caterpillar. Stupid Cat was paying him interest today and i rescued him, Not a Clucking Flue what he actually was (apart from a long fat caterpillar) but a bit of internet digging shos him as THE EHM..

So he is now safe in a HABITAT in the garage..

Well cool Rob :)

I have a MF spider in the workshop.

His name is Borris, well Borris2 to be exact, Borris number one got run over by Junior whe he was rolling a wheel accross the floor :rolleyes: :D

The Grandchildren were allways aking if they coul go out to see if they could find Borris :)

(S)he's a biggy. 3" long , and 1/2" across. can get some speed up tooo.

should spin up soon and this time next year will be a giant Moth.

I have not seen any of those this year, quite unusual not to see them here.

Certainly are big fellows though, no way I would eat one of those on I am a celebrity get me out of here :D :D

What do the young'uns think of it Rob :)

I share the shop with half a dozen mice, the farm cat who likes sleeping on my seats , a few realy big spiders , the running ducks that wonder in and out and pepper pig has been known to poke her head through the door as well.

mmmmm!
 

I can taste the apple sauce now!!:)
