Monarch #Caterpillar
I actually started this a couple of months ago, but then stalled out on the flower buds, feeling both bored and intimidated by them.
finally got inspired to finish during this recent drawing hyperfocus. -

Four out of the 5 Black Swallowtail caterpillars have either formed or are in the process of forming chrysalids. In the photo the upper caterpillar has assumed the characteristic J shape prior to becoming a chrysalis, and the bottom one has completed forming the chrysalis.

Melloona – where things grow a little differently
• ♥ ! • Happy Fantasy Faire • ! ♥ • It’s that time of the year again. Every year I think I know what to expect, and every year it still feels a bit unreal when everything finally comes together. What starts as scattered ideas becomes a world of its own. This year, Luna and I sponsored and built Melloona. Melloona is a quiet, curious realm where the familiar turns gently impossible. Expect wild colors, vines and of course, melons. It doesn’t shout, it hums softly and […]https://alruniaahn.wordpress.com/2026/04/24/melloona-where-things-grow-a-little-differently/

Going through phone snaps from November's biodiversity survey in Bajaritas Canyon in Mexico. There were lots of really cool caterpillars. I have no idea what kind of butterfly this turns into.

L'occasion de rappeler que #Caterpillar est complice du génocide en #Palestine et fournit des bulldozers à l'armée israélienne.
Si jamais vous comptiez acheter ce genre de chose, je vous suggère nos voisins allemands de chez #Liebherr, voire si c'est pour des plus petits trucs, du français avec #Mecalac.

#Moths of the #Saturniidae are characterized by #adults that camouflage with closed wings (#mimesis), but perform a #mimicry behavior, when disturbed by presenting their #eyespots. They have stunted/fully reduced #mouthparts and reproduce only. Species of genus #Automeris live mostly in the tropics/subtropics, #caterpillars can look #colorful and #bizarre and are defensive via stinging hairs. Exples: Automeris egeus or A. niepelti. The #caterpillar below might be related.

1/2
Violating a rule of thumb, finally drilled into me, to "look up", at tree tops and branches, while doing bird/nature photography.
On this outing, I was looking for more 'low-hanging fruit' (actually not at all easy to find!) Looking for scrub jays in the scrub, mostly. I did not succeed with the jays, but was surprised to see some other (ground) creatures I wasn't looking for.
I came across a deer, plus the 'Echo Moth'

I went for a walk yesterday in Zeeland and saw LOTS of caterpillars on the road at a certain point. Luckily there was little to no car traffic there. Most were black with spikes, those will become peacock butterflies (Aglais io, 🇳🇱 dagpauwoog). But I also saw a HUGE green one of the hawk-moth (Agrius convolvuli, 🇳🇱 windepijlstaart). Apparently those are rare in NL.

@deepstatedude It's the #caterpillar of some kind of #silkmoth (#Lepidoptera #Saturniidae) but I can't find any exact matches.

#Meeting with the #Devil!
The Hickory Horned Devil! 🐛
They can grow up to 15 centimeters (5.9 in) long. Their frightening appearance is purely a ruse; the spines, though prickly, do not sting, and the larva is harmless and actually one of the more easily handled of the #Saturniidae. The HHD is the largest #Caterpillar in North America.

A chunky #Polyphemus #caterpillar is munching through leaves, fattening up for its pupal stage that will keep it safe through the coming winter.
