Hello :)
I pray this is a butterfly caterpillar. A few were on our Mammoth Russian Sunflower plant and a few were on our Black eyed Susan...
I thought it would be a Painted Lady or Silvery Checkerspot cat...but the pic I have doesn't match what's in my books or what I can find online...Big Sigh...
If they are butterfly cats, I'll put them back on their host plants...but if not...they are going bye bye!
Thanks,
Susan
