This was one of a number feeding on a ceanosis in a neighbour's garden. The adult male of the species is easily recognisable by their rich reddish brown forewings. The females are virtually wingless and are unable to fly and remain close to the papal cocoon. They are found throughout Europe, temperate Asia, Siberia and the USA. As with most hairy caterpillars, the bristles are connected to venomous glands and function as a defensive barrier to would-be predators and cause irritation to the skin. They feed on the foliage of various trees and shrubs.

The Spanish moth, Xanthopastis timais (Cramer), is unmistakable for any other moth in Florida. The larvae are likewise very colorful, and have been called convict caterpillars. The larvae are occasional pests of lilies, mainly in Amaryllidaceae.

I spotted this Viceroy caterpillar in a tree yesterday while 3 of us were out hunting clubtails again. Hadn't seen a Viceroy cat in awhile. Not sure of the tree - they use several as their host plants. The adult Viceroys spend most of their time in the open wetlands.

See recent shot of a Viceroy - similar to a Monarch in appearance.

I think it's possibly a Brown Tail Caterpillar but please correct me if I'm wrong.

Standhisround and Jeff have probably correctly identified him as a Knot Grass Caterpillar

Another Sunday, another featherless day. This caterpillar of the Monarch butterfly is feeding on the flower buds of the Milkweed.

Caterpillar close up. Even thought they move so slowly, it's almost to fast if you are a newbee to macro.

I see Swallow Tails in the area, but never in the garden feeding. But I bought the plants anyway, in the hopes they would use them.I thought at least maybe the rabbit will much on it. The yesterday I found 9 caterpillars!

I wouldn't touch it.

Caterpillar 5bis

Kunstenaar: Wim Delvoye

Het exemplaar dat er nu te zien is, is niet het originele exemplaar die er in 2003 stond, tijdens Beaufort01. Het originele werk verhuisde datzelfde jaar nog naar Ground Zero in New York. Dit werk is opmerkelijk groter en monumentaler en het heeft ook geen attributen naast zich. De oorspronkelijke versie had een schop met signaleringshekken en een hoop (gotische) aarde naast zich. Het huidige werk staat er sinds 2004. Het wordt gekenmerkt door een vreemde spanning veroorzaakt door het samenbrengen van twee werelden die niets met elkaar gemeen hebben, namelijk de moderne tijden gesymboliseerd door de rupsbandtractor en de middeleeuwse wereld opgeroepen door de decoratiepatronen van een gotische kerk.

This caterpillar found a nice daisy to snack on.

The color reminds me that autumn is on the way, although I can't tell it today - temperature in the upper 80's.

The outskirts of the remnants of hurricane Ike are coming through here - continous 30mph winds with frequent gusts over 50mph. Must have been fierce when it first came ashore.
