Cucullia asteroides
"It's a bird. It's a plane. No it's a caterpillar that looks like a plane." The cool, long green and yellow with black "eyes" caterpillar of the Goldenrod Hooded Owlet Moth. It looks very comfortable and very pretty in the Small White Aster flowers.

Thank you! I love my caterpillars. They don't fly away like butterflies and moths although this one looked ready for take-off. HA! LOL!
Beautiful caterpillar, and very nice photos.
Hahaha, I love your description
