So many tuffs! I wonder if it will be as colourful as a moth.
Doris Potter replied:
Well ... you made me curious so I looked it up. The moth has dull brown wings but its body is orange with black spots.

These are marvelous caterpillars:>) If you came across a bunch of them you're likely to have seen a number of different instars - seems they congregate with younger brothers and sisters. Lovely macro work! F/L
Doris Potter replied:
They are cute aren't they? And you are right, I found a bunch together on one leaf and there were many different sizes. Thanks for your lovely comments Mother Nature.
