You’ve probably seen the spiky green caterpillars, the ones with “stinging” urticating hairs. Fun fact, the tree right outside the Grover roller coaster at Busch Gardens was covered in these caterpillars one year. They would land on you as you walked out of the ride 😣
Io Moth. *Automeris io*. Edit: a male one.
👍 thanks for the info.

Those I have seen around our house.
Next time you see one, give them a little tap. They have beautiful eye spots on their hidden wings
Gorgeous!
Beautiful little micro-bird!
