Colourful Caterpillar
I had been pruning my Quince bush and came across this beauty. Apart from the vibrant colours it has a ‘horn’ on it’s back…I have no idea what it will become…...

Nice capture of a handsome caterpillar. I sure it will turn into a moth as some of the most colourfull caterpillars turn into drab loking moths. Well spotted Pat.

What a beauty Pat, hope it doesn’t eat all your flowers!

oh how pretty! it kind of reminds me of a Datanna? not even sure i’m spelling that correctly, sorry. But…does it arch it’s front and rear ends up in the air when u get near or touch it?
Carla Jandelle...
OOOH ignore my last question…if it’s got a HORN…not Datanna….....ugh…no idea! lol he’s beautiful though!
BugGuide.com helps me TONS…even for those overseas since many of our butterfly and moth species are similiar…
