Great spotting. Please consider adding this to the Caterpillars and Larvae mission.

Look for the cocoon http://www.butterflyfunfacts.com/cocoon..... The adult usually emerges after winter but since its early summer it may emerge this season (I am not sure). To see the moth, you need to locate the cocoon and keep it contained, if you're inclined. It's large and probably will pupate very soon.
Thank you, Martin! I wish I would now see this species as a moth! How beautiful it is!
