horned devil adieu






I first posted a photo of this odd thing a few weeks ago. This then is its last official portrait before it goes underground to complete its transformation.
Isn't it adorable!

After a week in captivity being talked to and pampered and fed bowl after bowl of sumac leaves, we bid a fond adieu to a hickory horned devil, America's largest caterpillar, certainly the largest to ever be in my living room.
