Success at last!

            Finally, a caterpillar of the Orchard Swallowtail Butterfly (Papilio aegeus) has grown past second instar. I believe this is later in the third instar, but I could be wrong, it might be early fourth instar. I have watched and photographed so many tiny brown and white caterpillars from 1st-2nd instar, only to have them suddenly 'disappear'. Obviously they became food sources for spiders and other predators.
