Norape ovina

The White flannel moth at my porch lights. The "fur" around this moths head for some reason reminds me of the wicked woman in the 101 Dalmations movie.

A White Flannel moth caterpillar eating Redbud on September 7, 2003. These moths are rare in the north, so I was very fortunate to have them in my yard.
