Found this guy on my Salix 'Hakuro nishiki' the other morning when watering. Was hoping for a better picture but the other views were too blurry. He "hides" by the base of the plant during the day and climbs up in the early evening and feeds on the foliage. About 2-2.5" long - husband thinks it's a type of Tussock Moth but can't find anything that looks similar - any ideas?
