Thanks for working on this. I had hoped you were still active with PN. One last thing though... it needs a scientific name added to fully enter the database. :-)

Hi again, Tammy. I just wanted to re-visit this spotting and let you know the ID is secure and it can be updated. Thanks! :-)

Thank you Aaron, I have lived in this area of Ohio my entire life but have never seen this caterpillar until this year. It was simply lovely. :-)

Nice spotting, Tammy. This caterpillar is known by the common name "hickory horned devil." Despite their ominous appearance, they're harmless. :-)
