A closer view of the head with its orange dots! The caterpillar was feeding voraciously on tartarian honeysuckle.

This is a very interesting caterpillar, Christine. I went looking for cats the other day and found none! Wish you lived closer so you could show me how you find these guys! V

Who would not feed voraciously on that delicacy? It's extra honeyed. V

Pretty cute with all those polka dots ;-). I can see why it's so big if it's such a voracious eater. Excellent color and composition. V.
