		<description><![CDATA[When Sam caught this one in the yard on June 13, 2010, I thought it was going to be an easy ID. Pretty good-sized caterpillar, distinctive-looking striping; should be a piece of cake, right? But, it turns out to be not so easy. I went all through Caterpillars of Eastern North America, searched BugGuide, posted [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m pretty sure that the inchworm wasn&#8217;t eating the lichen, because the camouflage is all wrong. It&#8217;s disguised as a twig, and the way it is posing, it would look pretty darned convincing if it were on a tree. But, being [...]]]></description>

On May 21, 2010 Sam and I found this hanging on the side of my father-in-law&#8217;s hunting blind in our back yard.

Its forewings were pretty well camouflaged for resting on bark, making it look kind of nondescript. But, when it was startled, it would briefly flash its hindwings at us, which were something else [...]]]></description>
