I always go around when it's catterpillar time and collect them up. They get thrown over the fence, it's ok we dont have neighbours at the back.

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 was out yesterday morning at sunrise involved in another project when I saw this caterpillar in the oleander bush next to our mail box. The bush remained in deep shadow, so I used a speedlight with reflector and grid on a light stand, and a handheld reflector opposite. He was well-hidden, and I could not frame a shot with a completely unobstructed view...

Thank you my friends for popping by.

I really appreciate your visits, comments & favourites.

Wishing all my Flickr friends a Beautiful Sunday

 

Take care and stay safe everyone

 

Thank you

I didn't see this hidden below the flower buds 'till I zoomed in. :-))

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.

The only creature (that we can catch), so far, that I have had to say no to Evan holding due to the potential rash or irritation it can cause.

Caterpillar of the Pale Tussock Moth (Calliteara pudibunda)

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

I wouldn't touch it.

This caterpillar found a nice daisy to snack on.

Does anyone know what this caterpillar is? It was taken near Lake Quinault on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State.
