Our nature find for the day!

While I was putting Andrew down for his morning nap, Jacob and Nicole looked out the patio door windows and discovered this caterpillar crawling across the patio. We went outside to watch it and take some photos.



We have identified it as an Imperial Moth Caterpillar. We have a favorite website for identifying bugs, etc. "What's That Bug?" is always a great starting point for our research and we have identified many unknown bugs this way! What fun! If Brian were home (i'm not brave enough) we probably would be watching it in our bug box.
