Mr. Caterpillar

While picking peppers from our garden, a caterpillar was spotted. M brought it in to show me, K was so excited about it. Now I thought these little guys turned into butterflies, but it is awfully late in the season for butterflies to be hatching. What do you think?

Mr. Caterpillar up close.

We put him out in our apple tree.

I think he prefers our garden.

  1. He's huge! I wonder if he'll be some type of moth. I forget what they were called, but when we lived in Georgia we had huge caterpillars demolish our tomato plants, and they turned into huge moths. Is Mr. Caterpillar still around?
