The Gardener's Angry. by ladymagpie

The Gardener's Angry.

Another picture from my friends garden on Thursday but this one wasn't amusing my friends husband. I always walk around with them both looking for interesting photograph.

My eye spotted this colourful Caterpillar crawling up the back of the sun house. It was greeted with a cry of "NO, that's a cabbage white caterpillar". Several more were spotted and after I had taken my photograph they had somehow disappeared.

I turned to the gardener and accused him of murder but although he pleaded that they would eat his new plants he could see my displeasure. It turns out he hadn't killed them at all, but lobbed them over the garden fence into the neighbours garden, Naughty Gardener but the caterpillars are safe.
I know they are a pest but they are quite lovely - great capture

The capture is beautiful and the story too funny - so glad it turned out that no caterpillars were harmed!

I like the caterpillar on the light background. Good way of 'disposing' of them - until the neighbours twig!
