Description
Third one I found today on my toms! Nice caterpillers but destructive to tomatoes! I didn't have the heart to kill them; so just took them about 200 yards away and turned them loose!
They are slow, before they can get back they will be butterflies! Sorry about the phoo quality here and thanks for looking!

Eeeeps...creepy bugs like this are so scary to me!! This one is sure unusal with all of those folds and what a bright green he is! So interesting to see... I don't have tomatoe plants obviously but if I did I sure wouldn't want to find this fellow on them!

Another excellent find! Just beware -- when they become butterflies, they will come back and make more of these little rascals. (It's happened to me with the bagworm moths. I've yet to see the moth, and I keep trying to get rid of all the cocoons, but they keep coming back! Nice shot! :^)
