This is a video of a caterpillar in the Netherlands.
Everdien van de Bijl made the video.
This is a caterpillar of a moth species, the pale tussock.
The Dutch common name for the moth (Meriansborstel; literally, Merian’s brush) is derived from famous butterfly and other insect painter and pioneer entomologist Anna Maria Sibylla Merian.
This video is called Maria Sibylla Merian Google Doodle [HQ].
