cocoon?

Somehow I saw the caterpillar make little movements...
very tiny, small, like breezing a little.
so he's not dead.
What I noticed today is, that the skin is changing ,
like getting more transparent and more aging.

Meanwhile caterpillar number 2 has, after going the same restless miles-tour round the tent, trying to find the best spot, & finally he found one.
He too spun himself a safetybelt, and is going into cocoon too!
