Interesting insects

On my walk yesterday afternoon I came across this large, hairy Caterpillar on the trunk on an old Black wattle tree.

I think this caterpillar was preparing to pupate.  This might be a caterpillar of one of the very large moths that we have here.

Longer than my index finger, with eyebrows almost as bushy as mine.

When I got home I spotted this small  Praying mantis on my car.
