Saw this guy crawling on my back patio last week. Picked it up and brought it to where there was better light to take a picture. Waited for it to uncurl itself.
Waited,
waited,
waited,
waited...
gave up.
Sorry.
I so know about the wait for a Larva to uncurl Cindy. I found even going for a walk and distracting myself so my presence could be forgotten and undetected was pointless... I gave up too...
Reluctantly, I have reinstated the word verification for all comments on this blog. I don't like it any more than you do, but the rate of breakthrough spam was even more annoying. Thanks for understanding.
There ain't nothing pretty about this one, is there??? Even his dark head is ugly. (My opinion).
ReplyDeleteDid it die?
ReplyDeleteIt could be a moth larvae, but aren't those usually furry?
It doesn't really look like a caterpillar, either...
I really don't know what that is.... Try to google it.
Good luck!
