io catepillar...

io caterpillar...
farmer son 2 and i were outside, pulling weeds, mulching blue berry, and simply hanging out observing nature along our way.  when we got to our american red bud, the top leaves were missing, a catepillar had been there. not good.  i quickly found it, got it on a stick and embraced the photo opportunity. this is the io caterpillar. its spines are filled with poison and they sting, so don't touch.   









til next time,
farmer mom
