NARROW LEAFED MILKWEED CATERPILLAR | Monarch caterpillar feeding on a milkweed leaf.

I finally found Monarch caterpillars on the milkweed yesterday - but just 4. Today I can only find 2. It's been a pitiful season for Monarchs down here. I only saw one female come through a couple of weeks ago and may not see any more. This guy is almost fully grown. He'll turn to chrysalis right here in my yard and a Monarch will emerge by October - and will fly to Mexico to spend the winter.

Measuring worms are the larva of any of a large group of moths in the order Lepidoptera. Because the larva lacks the middle pair of legs, it moves in a characteristic “inching,” or “looping,” gait by extending the front part of the body and bringing the rear up to meet it.
