Have you ever seen a twig-mimic caterpillar?

Mother Nature must have a sense of humor. She created a caterpillar that looks just like a twig. Peggy Berryhill and Susan Ruschmeyer found one at their home in Anchor Bay. It's a twig-mimic caterpillar in the family Geometridae.

Its head with three legs on each side is to the right. Here's a video Susan took of the caterpillar's unique movements.

This is a first for me! Perhaps for  you too.

Thanks to Peggy and Susan for allowing me to share their photo and video with you here.

Sunny and warm today with no wind. It's supposed to heat up tomorrow, Tuesday and on Wednesday. The Pacific Ocean was flat calm today.
