Caterpillars Are Self-Reliant

This afternoon, Joy and Leila called me outside . . .


. . . to see something they had found.


It turned out to be a caterpillar with some cool-looking antennae.  The concerned girls wanted to know what they could do to help feed and shelter the little caterpillar.  They relaxed a bit when I reminded them that the caterpillar and thousands of its ancestors have been surviving in the outdoors just fine for centuries.
