Description
This is a pair of Pipevine Swallowtail Larvae that were feeding on a vine like plant chewing on either side of it.. They do this in order to make them poisoness and thus avoid predation.
My mate Jim Ryder (Nameless_Wildness) and I spent the afternoon on a boiling hot day at my local Butterfly house and did not see any Butterflies of this species there.. Which is a bit of a mystery as I am fairly certain this is what they are..
