Caterpillar in Fennel

Description

Every year my fennel plant (and parsley when I have them) attract Black Swallowtail (Papilio polyxenes) butterflies for egg laying. This year we got quite a few of them especially since my parsley seeded so well from last year & grew a "Parsley Forest" in the garden box!

This one is in the fennel plant. You can see my spanish lavender in the background there.

I love those caterpillars! We used to play with them all the time at Montessori.
