Small fuzzy friend

Well, not so friendly, as the fuzzy hairs can be very irritating to skin, the ends have barbs which penetrate and cause rashes.

Probably hickory tussock moth caterpillar (Lophocampa caryae).

Quote for today:


Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.

    Wonder what they predict if anything weatherwise. Our woolly worms here are black on ends and brown in the middle this year. Was very happy with that..Black solid means big snow and cold. Nice shot of this one.

    He's a beauty! Like a small parade with banners.

So glad to have your comments...whatever they may be. I'm one who likes to reply sometime or another, so others will see that; or you might happen back sometime and see what conversation might have started.
