My hubby just came in from the garden with the strangest looking caterpillar I have ever seen.  It is about as big around as your pinky finger and about as long too.  It is a pretty light green but has about 100 tiny white babies all over it.  My husband said it is a ‘queen caterpillar’ and the babies will start eating her so they can grow.  I have no idea what kind of moth, butterfly or what the babies will turn into if they do turn into anything at all.  It was really neat looking.  Wish you could have seen it.
