Caterpillar

West Bank Bridge Park

The weather has been very mild and the flowers are still blooming. We don't expect a freeze anytime in the near future, so they may continue to bloom for a little while longer.

The evening light was wonderful as the students boarded the bus home after the various after school activities.

Nikon D70s
1/320s f/8.0 at 70.0mm full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Amazing that there would be a caterpillar alive at this time of year. And even more amazing that you found him hiding under the leaf. Nice shot.

These are such pretty caterpillars you know they're going to be a beautiful butterfly. I like the way you captured this with the complementary colors of the leaves and flowers.

Soon to be a beautiful butterfly for you to photograph. Good thing you planted this milkweed for it.
