Painted lady caterpillar

Vanessa cardui

Description:

I think this is a painted lady caterpillar: please correct me if I'm wrong. Spotted it crawling on Viper's Bugloss (Echium vulgare). Did not see it feeding. Noticed several silk threads in the general vicinity, but can't be certain if they were from the caterpillar.
