Thanks MayraSpringmann..
Fantastic capture!!!
Giant Swallowtails are so beautiful.. I don't think we have them here in OZ..
Just like our Giant Swallowtail, except it's caterpillar looks like bird droppings!They eat any citrus
They eat the leaves of all lemon trees..
Found another shot...
Looks like a real tough guy. What does he eat?
thats so cool :-)
These caterpillars also have a very strong lemony smell..
Our caterpillars are pretty plain next to yours in Australia
