criminal caught (caterpillar)

So my basil was chewed on but I could not find the culprit. Then days later one of my broccoli plant leaves is half chewed. I also found scat which is a huge clue! I still couldnt find the bugger until I lifted up the straw ball my ladybugs came in and found him under neath and inside it. What kind is it? I am thinkin moth, never seen one that wasnt green. I figure he was hiding during the day so the birds didnt get em. Also, is this my new method for trapping these guys? Give em a place to hide then check it daily? Im feedin this one to the birdies. The lady bugs did do impressive on my aphid problem and so far no other bugs found, 2 months into my growing season!
