This little guy is on a passion vine, so I'm pretty
sure he will someday, if a bird doesn't get him, be
a Gulf Fritillary butterfly.

Beautiful colors, but he doesn't look too warm and cuddly, that's for sure!

Never heard of that type of b'fly, but this stage looks strange and spiky!

A wonderfully spiky creature!

Isn't he a funny little thing? It's a shame you couldn't put him somewhere safe until he hatched! :)

Looks like he's had his spikes jelled...wonder if he's about to have a nose ring or tattoo added :>)
