Cute Caterpillar, like the title it made me giggle. Clear and well focused with the leaves providing the contrasting backdrop, nice shot !!

Great details in this. I've seen those around here. I forget what kind of caterpillars they are though.

Great shot in excellent lighting, you can sense the purposeful movement in its strange caterpillar alien world.

I saw 2 of these at the base of 2 tall pine trees and collected one for my daughter's Bug Habitat. She is collecting all kinds of bugs, so far has 1 very large mosquito, 2 stink bugs and this red & black fuzzy worm. My husband said that down here in the south, the belief is that the red spots indicate how many months of winter are coming.
