Does anyone know what kind a caterpillar this is. I know we have some insect lovers here. :) It was munching on some of my garden greens. Thanks! --Kort

Sorry can't help on ID - it is a super shot of the colourful, spikey creature :)

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.
