Hi, MacChristiansen! It's beautiful caterpillar, looks very similar to Calcarifera ordinata, here is the link and check it: http://www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_...
Even though it's a small caterpillar it would be a brave and/or skillful predator to take it on then!
Thanks KD, the spiked were out permanently, found on a yellow wattle tree

MacC this is amazing! Do the 'spikes' retract or are they out permanently?
