Invasion of the caterpillars

The plumeria at the grandparent's place is crawling with tetrio sphinx moth caterpillars. They are fascinating and grow at an astonishing rate.  Here are a couple of shots of them:

These were taken with an Olympus E-30 and ZD 70-300mm lens, handheld with macro extension tubes; f/8 at 1/100.

Both of these photographs are available in slightly modified forms via my Etsy shop at http://qnrphotography.etsy.com.
