I’m just going to say it. I was a little too thrilled about two caterpillars in the garden yesterday. I must have taken at least 20 pictures of them, and a few videos as well. In my defense, they were pretty big caterpillars. Not the biggest I have ever seen, but the biggest this year in the garden. I am really curious to know where they are all going after they have feasted on my Passion Flower. They are shredding that thing to pieces. Thank golly the plant grows fast. Fast enough to just barely keep up with their appetite. These two in particular have been hanging out together for a few days now. I’d like to think they are friends and have been having wonderful conversations about plants and eating. That would be all they have to talk about since that is all they do all day. Enjoy little buddies. Do you guys see the little one peeking her head out from behind the leaf? SO CUTE!
