6-30 Ring around the collar - hmm.

Heat still pounding and still no sign of rain - feeling for the east coast people with power outages in this heat - found this guy this morning and couldn't find any matching pictures for the yellow ring and feet. No time to be picky though - shoot and head indoors! Wish I'd had something to bring him home in and watch what he became.
It's an interesting one, for sure! Nice shot.

Nice find and capture. Luckily, he gets his moisture from the leaves that he is eating. We are ok here- it is 90 degrees, but that is manageable with a few fans and drawing the shades on the sunny side of the house.

Well seen and caught. i like the way you've composed this with the diagonal of the twig.
And what a strange looking little creature! I guess maybe he's a caterpillar of some sort.

Great find, but I don't even want to know which end is up, lol.

Awesome find! I've never seen a caterpillar like it, so I looked in my book and online. It's a Snowberry Clearwing Moth caterpillar! I would love to find one! Fav! :0)
