I found this caterpillar at Cane Creek Park in Cookeville, TN.
@Pixygiggles :Welcome...'Metamorphosis' in moths is always an amusing phenomenon...And i wish u add some details about this caterpillar....
Thank you so much, Adarsha B S, for the help with the ID. I do believe the mystery has been solved. I'll update the spotting accordingly. And thank you, DanielHernández and Argy Bee, for the comments. Isn't it amazing how something so colorful can turn into a moth without even a hint of the same colors? That will always fascinate me.
I think its a Smeared Dagger Moth Caterpillar.....Pretty spotting pixygiggles
