Day 221: The biggest caterpillar I have ever seen!
Yesterday, during my MOMS afternoon, I noticed this HUGE caterpillar crawling across the doorstep. I've never seen one this big, and I thought the kids would love to see it, so I captured it and put it in a bucket until they got home. I was right, they were fascinated with it. Elizabeth wanted to keep it, so I let her keep it in the bucket overnight, then today we released it back into the garden. It immediately started trying to burrow into the ground. I believe it is a tobacco hornworm. To be honest, the thing grossed me out quite a bit!
