It spent a couple of days crawling up and down the window.

Offer it a variety of leaves from various plant families : like see if it prefers gum or wattle or grevillia or dandelions. Can you add a photo of it's head and thorax as it crawls?

Unfortunately it has now (sensibly) got tired of climbing up and down the window and vanished :-(
