I saw one a few days ago also Eleanor.
There is another in the basement - all curled up - all
winter long.
Must be natural.

While walking along my local dirt road yesterday I was very surprised to see a wooly bear caterpillar in the middle of the road; on picking it up, it promptly curled into a ball. Not quite sure what the best thing to do with it was, I put it in some leafy debris in a dense relatively wind protected part of the road alongside where I found it. I know they survive overwintering, but do they survive waking up in midwinter as this one did, presumably due to the ridiculously warm day we had the day before?

    I was very surprised to see a wooly bear caterpillar in the middle
    of the road; on picking it up, it promptly curled into a ball. Not
    quite sure what the best thing to do with it was, I put it in some
    leafy debris in a dense relatively wind protected part of the road
    alongside where I found it. I know they survive overwintering, but
    do they survive waking up in midwinter as this one did, presumably
