Papilio glaucus
Brown is when the caterpillar is young and will turn green later
Thanks maplemoth662!
A cute caterpillar....
Thanks, again, Jellis!
Don't believe it could be a Spicebush Swallowtail. As the Spicebush Swallowtail! caterpillar has too many eyespots and no collar bands.
Thanks Jellis and Thorp!
Yes, Papilio glaucus Brown is when the caterpillar is young and will turn green later
Perhaps! Definitely some kind of swallowtail. I'd say either an Eastern Tiger Swallowtail or a Spicebush Swallowtail!
