Terrific capture Jane. I agree with Yves nice to see the caterpillar in action. I noticed a few butterflies around my milkweed, I sure hope they touchdown and lay some eggs.

Like that shot Jane. The beast is beautyful. Nice color and sharp focus. I appreciate the action shot showing the caterpilar cutting a leaf for the lunch. Well done.

Thanks, Yves.

Description
I'm finally starting to see small Monarch caterpillars on the common milkweed I planted in my yard for just that reason.
