Camera-Critters #16


THE
STORY
OF THE
FUZZY
LIL'
YELLER
CAPALILLAR

Once there was a cute, fuzzy, lil', yeller capalillar, who realized he was very bored.
So, he decided to go out and play.

First, he decided to do chin-up exercises so he wouldn't stretch a muscle while at play.
A one... and a two... and a one... and a two.
(c) Misty DawnS

All those chin-ups make for a hungry fuzzy, lil', yeller capalillar.
So, he decided to have a little snack.
Not to be called "lazy", he decided to continue his stretching exercises while snacking.
Mmmm Mmmmm Good!
(c) Misty DawnS

But, the fuzzy, lil', yeller capalillar was lonely.
A day at play is ALWAYS better when shared with a friend.
"Hey Buddy! Wanna play Follow the Leader?"
"Follow ME!!!"
(c) Misty DawnS

Nuthin makes for a better day than spending it with a friend.

Really great pictures.

I enjoyed your photos of the fuzzy yellow caterpillar and the story with it! Great post for Camera Critters this week as always ;--)
Hugs and blessings,

Misty,
You outdid yourself on this one. They are extremely sharp with vivid colors and you have a good story to accompany the photos.

Heart of Rachel said...

Your fuzzy caterpillar is an interesting character. I enjoyed the story.

Mine is up at my
other blog.

Indrani said...

Golden Caterpillar in action! Could you observe it to see the beautiful butterfly it would turn in to.

Thanks for hosting this. :)

archiearchive said...

A wonderful little story :)

Ashrunner said...

Wow...a caterpillar and a shield bug in the same photo. Very cool. 8v)

Christy said...

Very nice shots of the caterpillar. I love the commentary as well. I just finished reading some of your other posts and I completely understand the organization problem with the photos. I hate to delete any images. Definitely an OCD thing. I need to either buy a DVD burner or an external hard drive one before I run out of room on my laptop. Oh and the depression thing, I don't think you could have done a better job explaining it than that. I know I am battling mild depression and I think some of it is post-partum.

Juliana RW said...

great macro shots, misty :D

Aileni said...

Lovely shots. Is the bug explaining about Life, The Universe and Everything, do you suppose.

Dragonstar said...

This is such a lovely series of photos, and the commentary is perfect. All so creative.

imac said...

Misty, these are great selection of photos.

Mine is up now.

I know just what you mean about Depression, Ive experienced it in the family.

Rambling Round said...

What a neat peek into the real world of caterpillars and that other bitty critter!

lv2scpbk said...

Looks like he's doing some stunts for you.

Kittilicious said...

He's fuzzy! LOL Great shot... you captured it perfect! :)

Anita said...

Great shots and commentary... that last one is so cute - he and his friend.. lol Isn't that a stink bug? The caterpillar is very nice to play with a guy that I'm sure a lot of insects avoid... ;D

Have a great day!
Stop by Prairie Visions if you get time! :)

Gretchen said...
