Thank you KeithRoragen, the link shows the same caterpillar.
If I had to guess, and I do, I'd say something in Euglyphis in Lasiocampidae. Here is the closest I could find.http://janzen.sas.upenn.edu/Wadults/phot...
Thank you Ismael
Amazing!
Thanks Nopayahnah, alicelongmartin and auntnance123 for your comments
They make a nice pattern on this leaf!
Hope there is a lot of leaves!
The behavior you describe is reminiscent of processionary moth larvae; but it could also be tent caterpillars.
