Tomato Worm, Tomato Hornworm - a photo on Flickriver

Tomato Worm, Tomato Hornworm

            So here is why one of my tomato plants has no leaves left. This hungry hungry caterpillar gobbled them all up. 
But, since I know that this fellow is going to pupate soon and turn into a Hummingbird Moth, (or Sphinx Moth), I let it be.

Hello everyone,
I wanted to tell you that since I am having five siblings descend upon my house unexpectedly, I am spending all day, and far into the night, cleaning, repairing, replacing, or just plain hiding stuff. We let the place go to the dogs while we played with photography and computer games and all the other things we do. So now we are paying for it. 

Consequently, I have no time whatsoever to even look at all your beautiful photos. Sorry.
I only put this photo up tonight so I could explain why I am gone.

I'll be back Aug 16 or so. I won't try to catch up, I'll just start again when I return. So if you have any photos you really wish me to see, send me an Fmail to notify me, and then I will come look!

Ok, off to the scrub brush, bye!!
