A couple of weeks back, Ben found a caterpillar on a plant outside. Being the cool dad that he is, he put it in a jar. As you can tell from the picture below, it was a very hungry caterpillar. All those stems had been full of leaves. He built a nice little burrowing cocoon and just yesterday we had a looky and VIOLA! A beautiful hummingbird moth!
Having a look see
There's our little mothy friend.
Free at last. Who knew moths could be so pretty? We were hoping a bird wouldn't come eat it right away. Hopefully it has found it's way in the world.
We found another fuzzy one today. It's in a jar now, on our fridge. The saga continues.
