Fat Cat!

As I mentioned in yesterday's blip, our milkweed patch is alive with huge monarch caterpillars. Hooray! I found four big ones on Tuesday, and on Wednesday, my husband discovered at least three more cats, in a slightly smaller size. So there are at least seven caterpillars munching their way through the leaves, maybe even more! Here is a picture of one of the big ones. Isn't it fat and sassy? T. Tiger says: hey, look at those STRIPES! And doesn't that sky look almost a September shade of blue?

The soundtrack for such bigness: Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, with Something Big. It's from the 1981 album Hard Promises, which is just excellent.
