Having a pretty plain garden (mainly lawn, few bushes) in England, I'm not used to seeing anything colourful so was surprised to see this lovely little furry thing as I was leaving for work yesterday.
I'd never seen one of these before and dashed back in to get a camera so I could identify it later. On this website I found it was the caterpillar for a Pale Tussock Moth. Very disappointingly, the adult is pretty dull.
Ah well, never mind - at least I now know what the damn things are that keep bashing their heads into our windows at night!
