Right I'm open for any suggestions that make more sense then .. 'The aphids under the leaves have built it to collect water'

No magic this definitely doesnt go through the leaf.

Another shot I was urged to post, as this one is unobstructed view by the grass, although the other one shows more of the lovely yellow back they have.

Beautiful China-mark Moth

Update: Thanks to Ryan Brookes for the ID on this one.

Once again I've looked and looked but couldn't find this moth.
He was fluttering through the grass along the river bank in Filsham Reedbed in East Sussex UK, so not being in his 'normal' sitting position has made ID harder for a n00b like me..lol

Garden Tiger Moth Caterpillar Top

Best Viewed large, this impressive caterpillar was about 1.5" long and some of the hairs on his back nearly that long as well.

Hebrew Character? -Top

I'm not 100% about this ID, all the info I could find about this moth was from its occupation of North America, not the UK.
That said I searched and searched green caterpillars and this was the only one I found that resembled this one.

Does anyone know if this species is native to UK?

Update: Velvetbean is NOT native to the UK, this is more likely a Hebrew Character caterpillar but still don't know this for sure.

This is a night flyer we must have disturbed hiding in the grass when we stopped for a picnic at Filsham on Monday.
I think Martin will have an excellent shot of this guy as he had the lens for it.
