White Tussock Moth Caterpillar II [Contest Finalists July 2010]
Uploaded: July 16, 2010 19:40:09
7/16/10, macro. Another capture of this caterpillar. I think the little suction cup feet are fascinating, as are the spiny quills and white tussocks, of course, and red face! I guess that's all there is!
