Breakfast for two at the Blackberry Leaf by cjwhite

Breakfast for two at the Blackberry Leaf

I found these two little buddies having breakfast on a wild blackberry leaf this morning. I've posted pics of Buckeye caterpillars before, but I've never gotten a good pic of the eyes. I have an obsession with insect eyes. :0)

Thank you so much for your kind comments and faves for yesterday's pic!!! :0)
Aww they met up for a little brunch together:)

Creative title. I think I would be intimadated if I were the ant. Nice composition and color.
September 26th, 2011  
Awesome, complete with all the hairy details!
September 26th, 2011  
Love the details and colours, awesome capture! The eyes are perfect! ;-)

This is cool, and I like the detail. If the little guy is not careful he will become part of the breakfast without knowing what happened.
September 26th, 2011  
wow isn't he beautiful!
September 26th, 2011  
oh he's very hairy and spikey looking! But lovely colours :)
September 26th, 2011  
those are some unusual eyes...even for an insect!
September 26th, 2011  
You are certainly good at capturing fantistic pictures of insects. Are these two insect really buddies? Could be. I've heard of some unusual relationship between different species.

Great colors on that caterpillar, also the details rock.
September 26th, 2011

A very crisp image and clever title.

I like the Buckeye too. This is, in my opinion, about as good as it is going to get unless you start some adjustments in Photoshop.
September 26th, 2011
