This week for Black and White Wednesday event I am submitting image of Black Swallowtail Caterpillar on parsley stem. In September month I spotted one Caterpillar on parsley herb plant which is growing in the pot along with chives. I gently lifted caterpillar along with stem and moved it over the lawn but next day it returned back on parsley plant. It looked very pretty with black stripes, yellow dots over bright light Green body. After googling I was pleasantly surprised to know that the same caterpillar transforms into a beautiful Black swallowtail butterfly.
Susan, author of TheWell Seasoned Cook who is also a founder of this event is hosting Black and White Wednesday #102. Now Cinzia of Cindystarblog looks after admin duties for Susan's Black and White Wednesday Event. For all guidelines and an index of all future event hosting blogs please check Cinzia's post here. Participants can join Flickr group created for B&W event. Next event (BWW #103, 30th October-2013- Hallowen Edition) will be hosted by Lynne of CafeLynnylu.
Caterpillar took three hours to finish eating one stem of Parsley.
I had plucked and placed it over side walk, later moved it over mulch.
(Check lower right image for end result.)
