Red oak leaf with larva

I was looking at the oak leaves, wondering if I might still find some sawfly larvae, and noticed a fine webbing across a tiny patch of white. When I touched the webbing there was movement and a minute larva scuttled up to the top of the white patch (you can just see it if you look hard). Possibly the larva of a micro moth.

Excellent observation and macro shot Christine. I wonder if this is where he will overwinter.
