[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note

I found this larvae on a small birch. I have no idea what it is and have asked a biologist, but I guess it will take some time before I get an answer. If you know, please post it in a comment :) Thanks.

Ive juste learned that this larvae is a Orgyia antiqua, a moph called "Rusty tussock moth".

Cute little insect:)
