Artist's Description
The Woolly Bear caterpillar becomes the Isabella Tiger Moth with a wingspread of up to 2 inches. This caterpillar is an almost indiscriminate feeder that eats many kinds of plants; they love herbs. The bristles are sometimes said to be venomous - not true - but in people with very sensitive skin they could cause some irritation just because they are "bristly".
Mythology says the size of the black stripes foretells how bad the winter will be - not so. The older the caterpillar is, the larger the brown stripe grows making the black stripes at the end recede.

About Carol Senske
I always wanted to try photography, and my retirement offered an opportunity to do just that. The natural world is my first love. Here you will find pictures of things both large (landscapes, for instance) and small (macro) that catch my eye. I hope the images serve as a window into the natural world many of you don't have the chance to see. In a sense, I'm trying to create a guided nature trail, sharing what information I have about the subject. I'm always grateful for new and better information and welcome all input. Learning is food for the mind and soul. Nothing is ever harmed in the picture-taking process, but some things that wander into our home (like spiders) are carefully removed from the house after they serve as "models"....
