Creepy caterpillars on the capers

Bright fuzzy caterpillars on the caper bush? OK . . . Bon appetit, little critters!
See those serious thorns? Ouch! I never cut caper branches without strong gloves.
And you have to keep after them all the time or they overrun everything. They seem to thrive in old stone walls.
To see what animals other bloggers posted this weekend check in at Camera-Critters blog.

  5. Which are more nasty: the capers or the caterpillars? In the Netherlands we have sometimes very hairy caterpillars, which are better not touched, because they cause a nasty rash on your skin.

  8. Way to behind to comment on all what has happened - but I do have to say I loved the liqour (remember drinking one too many in a cloister in Sinai, if I remember right.
    Glorious skywatch and nice caterpillars! Cheers, Klaus
