I've driven between Albany and Syracuse a million times, and always loved driving past this spot. There are two big cliffs on either side, which I call "the twins." There's also a beautiful bend in the Mohawk river with a rail line right there, so I often find myself pacing the trains as I drive.

 

I finally made time to get a shot of this location, and I was lucky enough for a train to pass by just as I launched!

The fox moth (Macrothylacia rubi) is a fairly large moth and unsurprisingly the caterpillar is fairly large as well.

 

The Swedish name is cooler though: "Gräsulv" which translates into "grass wolf".

 

Regardelss of name, this one looks very soft and cuddly - but I would strongly reccomend not picking it up.

 

As many have painfully discovered, in between all the fuzz is a nasty surprise.

 

Some of the hairs are connected to venom sacs and if the caterpillar isn't handled carefully enough, then they might break off and cause a painful itch which can linger for weeks or even longer.

 

The "rubi" part of the scientific name is in reference to the larvae liking bramble leaves as food - but they actually eat lots of other plants as well.
