This looper caterpillar is very well camouflaged. It took me awhile to realize I was not looking at a twig.

Incroyable cette chenille est à peine visible. Le mimétisme est parfait et il fallait la découvrir! Bravo à vous.

That caterpillar outsmarted me - I had no idea what this picture was about until I read your caption. (But it didn't fool you.)
