Watering time for the breeding tent of elephant hawk moths. There are four in here, all of which I purchased from a collector last summer as oleander pupa. A wonderful case of mistaken identity! They've been breeding already, there are lots of lovely bright green eggs scattered around on the plants. Each one is smaller than a pin head! • When the tiny caterpillars emerge they will eat their egg casing first as emergency nutrition before setting off on their journey to become the biggest caterpil

Our West Berkshire Land Manager Roger captured this excellent video of an elephant hawk moth caterpillar which he found in his garden. You can see it extending its neck like an elephant's trunk in exactly the way that gives this species its name. Roger says: "The caterpillars feed on willowherb species and also enchanter's nightshade - plants that most gardeners would consider weeds, but in our garden they are given space and the moths obviously find it as I see them every year."

Explaining Insects 🦋 on Instagram: "The moth pupa is the hidden transformation stage in a moth’s life cycle, where the caterpillar becomes an adult. Inside this hardened, often brown casing, the insect appears still, but internally its body is being completely rebuilt. Tissues from the caterpillar break down and reorganize to form wings, legs, antennae, and reproductive organs.
