No matter what position i got into he kept moving behind the stem.

This is an Anise Swallowtail caterpillar feeding on Fennel flowers. It looks like it is going to eat another bud, but actually I disturbed it when I bent the flower around into better light and it reared up displaying its horns (osmeterium). They emit a foul odor (which I did not smell) and are a defense again parasitic wasps laying their eggs on its body.

Excelente semana para todos!

Finally I found another interesting bug to photograph. Very martian looking I think. Between the rain showers and the wind, it was a challenge.
