Monarch Butterfly caterpillars ... by julzmaioro

Monarch Butterfly caterpillars ...

There was a couple of escapee's from the Swan Plant today and before I returned them to the bush I took some photo's of them... I could not get over how aggressive they were towards each other, were rearing up looked as if they were going to attack at any time.. so I returned them to a different bush...
Wow! I like the colors!

Great shot - you have upset my beliefs that these caterpillars are quiet, placid wee chappies - instead you are telling me they are territorial monsters!! Cool colours - well done. Thanks goodness you had more than one bush to return them to - might have woken in the night to unhappy grumblings from the garden!

@oliviagray @lynnz Thank you.. yes they are lovely colours.. @dide @rustymonkey as soon as they came near each they would rear up and look very threatening ..take great care in the garden at the moment..

Great shot and I really love how the frame echoes the stripes of the caterpillar. I like that you returned them to different bushes!!
