Where the Woodbine Twineth ~ Harris' Three-spot Moth (Harrisimemna trisignata) Caterpillar

Although these guys are quite common at Splinter Hill, this is the first one I've seen in the Upper Delta...but it fits right in, with it's voodoo doll-like appearance, as the Upper Delta is such a rough hewn, broad shouldered, poker faced kind of ecosystem where wildness performs magic and sorcery to the point of near madness, more compelling than dangerous in most cases...it seems to feel the pressure of presenting it's tricks and surprises during the limited months it isn't flooded, while other ecosystems have all year and can take their time about it!
