Eastern tent caterpillars (Malacosoma americana), #7701

Reveler Conservation Area

Small caterpillars still clustered on their tent. Later, as they mature, they will become quite large and found some distance from their nest.

Haven'thad an attack of these in many years. They can really destroy the landscape!

Quite the crowd of caterpillars in this fine capture, and interesting they live on a "tent." V.
