What is this on my hedge roses? Is it harmful? What should I do?

My guess would be caterpillar poop.

Will it harm my plant? If so, is there anything I can do to prevent that from happening? Thanks

whatever is causing the poop and webs is the harmful part. I assume caterpillars but I really don't now. How wide spread is the damage? If that's the only spot, just a traveler. If widespread, time to be looking for the culprits.

Thanks for your help. I've looked at the plant and this is the only web I've seen. I'll keep inspecting as the season continues. I appreciate your advice :)
Hurray!

The leaf behind with the black spots is more concerning, IMVHO. I would remove that leaf and put it somewhere away from the rose.
