Munchies






This catepillars ate two, 4' dill plants in less than 3 days. They ate all of the flowers and then munched down the stems. No dill for Chris's pickles, but we got a picture. I am not sure if they were Monarchs or not?....

  1. Excellently bad bugs! Nice pictures. They are monarchs - they gotta eat up so that they can metamorphosize and fly all the way to Mexico!

  2. Kelly, those are breaktakingly beautiful pictures!

    I heard from my in-laws that the wooly-bear catepillars in CNY are all orange. Does that mean you guys are in for a light winter? Or a long one?
