Waved sphinx moth caterpillar (Ceratomia undulosa), #7787

Larose Forest

Feeding on an Ash alongside a trail. This poor caterpillar has several Tachinid fly eggs on its head (top of photo) which will eventually hatch and parasitize it. The adult (moth) is very large and impressive: https://pbase.com/laroseforest/image/151277740

Really sharp photo - even the hairs on its feet. Too bad it won't make it once the eggs hatch.
