Field Notes

Description:

If you look closely you will see bristly stuff poking through the hole on the leaf. I turned the leaf over to see the caterpillar

Habitat:

On a Canna leaf. Urban residential area.

Notes:

I know PN taught me to " see" ...this is an example...I saw this as I passed the Canna bush and I " knew" there had to be something making that hole. It just took me a second to discover the caterpillar.
