Fuzzy Wuzzy Wuz a Woolly Bear?
I happened to have come across a woolly bear caterpillar in the yard today. Supposedly, the relative thicknesses of the black band will predict how severe the coming winter will be. Alas, there's no truth to it. Anyhow, I decided to take him in from the cold for a little while. In trying to photograph him, I accidentally turned him over. The poor guy has got all of his little legs up in the air trying to right himself back. Awfully cute though. Eventually, I let him back out, but placed him in a protected area so he could reacclimate to the outside temps and have a better chance of survival...weather-wise. No idea where he'd find food...
