Two new caterpillars sighted today, one in a group of Texas Milkweed (where other caterpillars were previously observed and reported), and one in a different group of Texas Milkweed in the same yard. The caterpillar in the photo was observed throughout the entire day. It started out rather inactive in the morning, ate as the temperature warmed, ventured out in leaf litter during the afternoon sun, and then returned to the same Texas Milkweed plant before nightfall.
