I was bored so I decided to pull out the Macro lens. I don’t think I’ve tried using this lens with my Canon 7D. For better or worse, there were hardly any insects that I could find in the backyard. I decided to walk over to the Passion Vine to see if I might be able to find any Gulf Fritillary caterpillars. Sure enough, I saw a couple, the one in the picture below was the largest.
Can you imagine being a predator and wanting to eat this? Those spines look really dangerous. Although those spines appear to be really hard and stiff (get your mind out of the gutter), in reality they are very flexible.
