Catapillar Update

Caterpillar Update.... they are growing by leaps and bounds.... double their size every day.
A three-year old went with his dad to see a litter of kittens. On returning home, he breathlessly informed his mother there were two boy kittens and two girl kittens.

"How did you know?" his mother asked.


"Daddy picked them up and looked underneath," he replied. "I think it's printed on the bottom.
What do you get if you cross a glow worm with some beer?
Light ale!

I'm fascinated that they have kinda the same colour as they will have as butterflies.

I had to double check and make sure I wasn't on Melange's blog. Really! These are really good shots, and quite suitably both creepy and pretty at the same time. Loving the shadow in the third shot! The kitten joke is a scream!

Oh my - outta the mouths of babes...even in jokes. Too funny. Can't wait to see those catepillars morph to beautiful butterflys!

Ruth Hiebert said...

LC said...

Now I will know not to squish these critters if they show up; they are baby butterflies. Thanks, Sandra!

What a great series of shots. I love your vine also.

One of my passionflower vines is growing well... the other is simply sleeping right now. I have six monarchs in chrysalides right now but I am worried that at least three of them are infected with the tachnid fly larvae. They were large when I brought them in. At the end of the season last year this became a problem and may be so even more now. The tachnid fly is a beneficial insect for bugs in the garden...but a menace for monarchs. Sigh. I hope to have some of these caterpillars someday as well.

very cool caterpillar shots. Did you turn them over to see if they were boys or girls?....lol

Thanks for ending my day with a smile. The caterpillars are truly growing by leaps and bounds, and you've gotten wonderful pictures of them.

Catepillars are cute little guys. Quite a life cycle they have.

These fellows are cool, I love their bright color. They will be gorgeous butterflies.

Love the joke, thanks for the giggles.
