Thank you very much JamesPriest2. I have seen butterflies, but this is my first spotting of the caterpillar, so I was happy to share this with Project Noah.
Had Wanderer butterfly (as they are known in Australia) caterpillars in my yard when I was a teenager as Mum grew milkweeds back then. Enjoyed your video as its been a long time since I've seen the caterpillars eating
Thank you so much Hema Shah. They are very aggressive, but they become graceful and beautiful butterflies. Amazing.
great movie.A very hungry caterpillar. Loved to watch the caterpillar eating!
