Thanks! I actually helped “relocate this guy”. He was crawling on another plant and I moved him for a photo shoot! I couldn’t help myself!

I assume you returned him back to the planned you picked him from, after the photo shoot?
ldeiter78 replied
Yep – all of the caterpillars were crawling on “butterfly weed” right beside my daisies.

Thank you, that you are one of the great photographers who care.
I have come across a few wildlife photographers in my life, amateur and professionals, which I term “trophy hunters” they destroy to get THAT shot. All they see is the fame and glory and not the damage they induce, deliberately and naively, which is not excusable.
Thank you for being one of the special ones, who take care and I call Real Wildlife photographers.
