Reader Wendy Pirsig sent in a photo of a caterpillar that she researched and identified as an Anise Swallowtail caterpillar.

Shortly after I received Wendy’s image I went into my garden and found nearly a dozen of the same caterpillars happily munching on a rue plant in my garden.  Since they were very absorbed in chewing I was able to get a portrait of one eating a plant stem.

What have you seen today?
