May was a month of collecting. We rounded up this skink, the sphinx moth caterpillar below (dubbed "Butthorn" by Lowell and Ian), lots of woolly bear caterpillars, grasshoppers, and an anole. We also captured some Black Swallowtail caterpillars and a Giant Swallowtail caterpillar from our bolted parsley plant and watched the metamorphosis. We had cocoons coming out our ears! And we also learned a lot about caterpillars.
