At least it would be something nesting in my new box. What with wasps, bees and huge caterpillars...what next I ask myself? 
Kathy ...yes it's a caterpillar. A pretty large one too. Would feed a family of 12 bluetit babes
Oak trees around here just about coming into leaf. The bluetits are amongst them just waiting for last trigger to lay I think. May's nest is almost complete and nesting going on until late in the afternoon so it can't be long now 
Diane and Elle.. yes it reminded me of ET and his glowing finger
Spooked me out when I started to watch it. I thought of Matt's claw pic too.
Sue ..well done for spotting the bird. I wish the camera hadn't gone into night mode so I could see the caterpillar in colour. Was lucky the box didn't have a nest of hungry mouths
That would have been some horror movie
Twinkle yes a lucky escape..
