[This butterfly is a Red-spotted Purple. The mature caterpillar of this butterfly resembles a bird dropping; it is cream-colored with dark mottling and a saddlelike patch on the back. It’s a very defensive and effective way of avoiding predators; look like a pile of crap and your enemies will not even notice you! Tomorrow morning, I don’t think I’ll comb my hair! 😉 ]
