Beautiful photos. Love the spiky caterpillar :)
Wow... dear what a beautiful butterfly!! Very nice photographs, thanks for sharing @violetmed I love your photography always. Be happy😊
Thank you, you too!
Such a pleasing photo, these are beautiful shots of caterpillar to butterfly. I enjoyed it, thanks for sharing 😊🍃
That butterfly is quite stunning!
really beautiful clicks,its amazing nature how a catterpiller goes through transformation and becomes so different.
but both butterfly and catterpiller are beautifully and functionally suited to the situation.
Your pics remind me my childhood when i can easily found this type of butterfly but now a days it's hard to find due to global warming .any ways you did really great work .love to see this type of work again and again.

Perhaps the plant necessary for the caterpillars isn't available - they must have the correct host plant for the caterpillars!
Magical creatures. It's one thing seeing these guys, it's quite another to be able getting a decent picture. Outstanding job. :-)
Thank you!
The orange of the buttefly looks so pretty on the orange and yellow flowers @violetmed. It is a lovely combination. 😊
Thank you and isn't it amazing how the orange and black of the caterpillar matches the orange and black in the butterfly?
howdy tonight at violetmed! wow more absolutely stunning photos, thank you!
Thank you for your kind words. It's Monday at 5:30 pm and we have had lots of rain yesterday and today at our house!
howdy @violetmed this fine evening! yes rain, and it's supposed to rain more tonight and tomorrow I heard! We weren't here during that drought, what was it, 8 years? can't imagine. the cracks in the ground would be a foot wide!
Greetings back to you and thanks for stopping by!
