Thanks, Cass, that seems to be the same thing. This one has cocooned now. Those were great pages, especially the 2nd one. How'ed you find that so quickly?
One more shot of it from a front view. You can see the 1st threads of his cocoon:
When you find yourself in a hole.... quit digging.
That caterpiller is TOTALLY cool! (I love bugs!) I suspected it was some sort of silkworm by the threads around it - or a spiderweb! Keep an eye on this guy JT, I'd love to see it's metamorphosis!

I'm just nerdy that way! I think maybe I was a detective in a previous life, I like "figuring things out". I just typed "identify caterpillar" into the search.
That's a really cool looking critter!

Great looking caterpillar, I've never seen one so vibrant before - and Cass - what neat information, thanks for sharing. I, too, would love to see it as a moth.
