Spodoptera ornithogalli
Minute caterpillar, just 5 mm long. Red-tinged green red & yellow striped with black "eyes" towards the rear.
Semi rural wildlife habitat. On rudbeckia in our butterfly garden.
Not sure if this is a skipper or a moth.
I'm pretty sure this is an armyworm of some kind. I found one of these boring through a tomato plant in my yard a couple months ago!
