Four-horned sphinx moth caterpillar (Ceratomia amyntor), #7786

Larose Forest

Also known as the Elm Sphinx. A couple of us were out at night in the forest looking for caterpillars a few days ago and found amongst many, the Pandorus and Waved Sphinxes, and this large sphinx on an American elm (which I had found and photographed a few days earlier).

C’est une belle chenille avec des détails bien réguliers. C’est une superbe macro.

Really scary for me to go out at night. Around here we don't know if we would encounter a bear!

He's quite hungry by the look of that leaf. A great find
