Description
This was a chance spotting while I has looking at the flying masses that visit the bushes. I saw him move then chump at one of the stamens. It is Very small and I have no idea what it could be. It has the perfect markings to go through the bushy stamens unnoticed hasn't he?

I think it could be some species of Pug-moth caterpillar, worth a google. Looks quite a bit like the Sloe pug but too late in the year and the wrong foodplant!
Whatever it is the beetle could be stalking id. Brilliant capture.
Well spotted, and a great shot!
bonne photo!!
Stunning capture my friend. God Bless.
Awesome photo with wonderful POV!!
Yes I had to look twice before I noticed that little caterpillar munching through the stamens. A wonderful clear capture.
Wow, beautiful focus, great shot- thanks for sharing! :-)
