EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Ken Lucas, we are introduced to the fascinating world of Tomato Hornworm Moth larvae. These young caterpillars, known for their vibrant green color and distinctive horn-like appendages, showcase their wild side as they roam freely in gardens across California. With a close-up view that reveals every intricate detail, it's hard not to be mesmerized by these tiny creatures. Their delicate bodies and graceful movements make them true stars of the insect kingdom. As members of the Lepidoptera family, commonly referred to as hawk moths or sphinx moths, these five-spotted wonders bring a touch of elegance to any garden landscape. While some may consider them pests due to their appetite for tomato plants and other crops, there is no denying the beauty they possess. This single snapshot captures their youthful energy and reminds us that even insects can have a playful side! So next time you spot one of these cheeky caterpillars in your backyard, take a moment to appreciate their natural charm. Thanks to Ken Lucas' skillful photography skills, we get an up-close encounter with these North American natives without having to venture too far from home. Let this enchanting image serve as a reminder that nature always has surprises waiting just around the corner!
