@Ace_pergers @TheLepSoc @BritishMoths @seabrookeleckie might you be able to answer this question? Thanks!

@Dr_Akito Also pretty partial to Camouflage Loopers that try to hide themselves under bits of flower petals.

[KYLepidopterists @KYLepidopterist]

@Dr_Akito Harris Three Spot Caterpillar is pretty awesomeness!

[KYLepidopterists @KYLepidopterist]

Harris Three Spot Caterpillar. Definitely my Caterpillar Spirit Animal. As a Mom how scary would I be to my kiddo when mad if I could have some old mad faces of mine attached to my hair to scare him into acting straight?! 😂

[KYLepidopterists @KYLepidopterist]

Spun Glass Caterpillar. Beautiful!

[KYLepidopterists @KYLepidopterist]

A yellow IO Moth Caterpillar. 😍🐛❤️

@iamKathleenW @LexKyParks @KentuckyTourism I’m glad you enjoyed your time in Lexington. We are indeed fortunate to have many great outdoor spaces in which to explore. I was in Berea, KY yesterday & found this beautiful Stinging Rose Caterpillar.
