Many of you have been sharing your caterpillar stories with me. It sounds as if you have sighted quite a few woolly bear caterpillars this fall.
Have you heard that the wider the black bands are on the woolly bear caterpillar, the longer and colder the winter will be? Don't worry. This is just a myth. The black bands on this caterpillar are just an indication of the caterpillar's age.
Look at this close-up of the woolly bear's body. Pretty neat, huh?!
Points to Ponder . . .
*I wonder if those spiky-looking hairs are sharp?
*I wonder what kind of moth or butterfly Mr./Mrs. Woolly Bear will turn into?
If you would like to see for yourself, check out this website. It will show you how to catch and care for your own woolly bear!
