The Seven Caterpillars
Somehow, I missed the swallowtails flying about this year, but they did leave offspring as evidence of their presence, seven caterpillars to be precise. Here are photos of three of them:
These big caterpillars were sitting on some fennel and looked healthy, so maybe next year we'll have a chance to see the butterflies they will try to morph into.
Thanks for watching!

This looks very big... if one bird get it... it fill be very happy :))
They are awfully pretty
Indeed. They do eat noisily, though. Pretty, but no manners.
Just the way I like em. Wait, are we still talking caterpillars?
Oh my goodness @ocrdu. Those photographs are incredible!!! 😱
Thank you. I'll convey your praise to my models 8-).
These are fantastic photos. I particularly like the wide-angle shots.
Thank you. They sit still much better than butterflies 8-).
I love the colors. This is fantastic!
what a beautiful shot!
The only time I've seen a caterpillar like this was in Alive and Wonderland. These simply amazing and beautiful at the same time. So plump and colorful. Lovely images here
What a terrific capture. Almost cartoonish looking.
Very colourful and great focus. I suppose you can take your time a little as they don't exactly run off. There used to be many more when I was young, but are hard to find now.
Butterflies in general aren't doing all that well here, I suppose the UK is no different.
And yes, these often sit still, which is greatly appreciated 8-).
