Garden Caterpillars

A few caterpillars in the garden today; one I have become familiar with is Scythropia crataegella, one which has clearly bred and is happily eating a box bush, Cydalima perspectalis



and this one, probably unnaturally on these spring onions... any ideas?

    Hi Dave The top one is a Box Moth the bottom one look rather like Broad-bordered Yellow Underwing. Keep them and see what emerges!
