Scary Caterpillars

I saw two caterpillars the other day and thought they looked more like snakes them caterpillars! 



Their “big eyes” were very scary and no wonder the birds wouldn’t go anywhere near them!

In spite of their cool green color, they are looking scary, but hopefully they will turn into some beautiful butterfly or moth soon.

Welcome to my blog. It is always nice when someone finds me and leaves a comment so I can find them too.

Your macros are fantastic and I like the way you capture the little triumphs and tragedies of spider and moth, of the wonders of caterpillars and those wonderful dragonflies. I particularly lied the dragonfly with it's eye glinting through it's gossamer wing.

Happy days . . .
