Ah, yes, we have had caterpillars of similar appearance and behavior here that hit a lot of hardwoods in our area after a very wet spring in 2010. Will have to look into this further. Thanks for sharing! |

Nature put on a spectacular lightning show in our area tonight. We've missed most of the storms that have popped up in this vicinity, but tonight nature put on a spectacular light show right over our house.
