Geo8 has posted a doc:

On their Patron Saint day, the Bruco (Caterpillar), as every Contrada on its own day, celebrates visiting all other Contrade (but the rival!). They get received with the host's flags (Chiocciola "Snail", in this case) and go to the church to tune a prayer to the Virgin, the protector of Siena.
