This little guy thought he could make the leap,but was a little short! He was very colorful and I liked watching him manuever~managed to get him in mid-air! Don't know what he is though~any thoughts?

Found out that this is the caterpillar of the wood-nymph butterfly! Maybe Jimbob saw some or has a capture of one from the butterfly house. :)Ami

I have no idea what he is but it looks like he wanted to model for you. Great job of capturing this colorful little guy.

I would have loved to take real close-up of him Ami! A rare shot and with such good clarity too! Perhaps if he would creep further down he can reach across :)

Nope, Ami, I didn't see one at the Butterfly House. Sure is a pretty critter, though. Nice capture.

Looks like a slinky to me Ami. A beautiful one at that. If my youngest grandson got hold of it, flying would not be in its future. Such a wonderful shot and your timing was impeccable.

Very bright, nice catch! My guess is that he is an Inchworm... they look like this in Virginia, but are mainly dressed in tones of green.
