Worth Taking A Closer Look

When I first saw this guy on our wild grapevine, I thought he was a pretty ordinary-looking caterpillar.  My photo showed me that he's actually much cooler.   This is an Eight-Spotted Forester caterpillar.  He especially likes wild grapevines and Virginia Creeper.  The moth he becomes is black with yellow and white spots and bright orange fuzzy upper parts on his legs that look like 80's leg warmers.  Hope I get to see one!
