What a ‘back-breaking’ curl from this caterpillar shape. Can’t say as I’ve even seen such a straight ‘stretch’ on any caterpillars at all.

Strangely, his shape reminds me of the “hook” on the end of that seed pod you recently showed. I don’t think he’s getting ready to latch on to something and travel, though!

  Lol 🙂 No, I don’t think he will be travelling either, not in that fashion anyway 🙂

I tried to do that once. But then realized that Yoga position wasn’t meant for me.

Dear Pete,

Very good photo – looks like the worm is doing a kind of yoga asana 🙂

Have a great Sunday
