Sphinx caterpillars oleander sent on October 11, 2014 (12:07) by Lucchin Fabrizio. 9 comments, 5846 views.

, 1/160 f/7.1, ISO 1250, hand held. Specie: Daphnis nerii

Questi sono i bruchi della sfinge dell'oleandro, quando mangiano sono di colore verde, poi un giorno smettono di mangiare e la mattina te li ritrovi di colore marrone e intrattabili, se provi a prenderli si contorcono tutti, poi vanno sottoterra per 20 giorni per la muta ed esce la stupenda farfalla che potete vedere nelle foto precedenti. Quei due falsi occhi azzurri che vedete servono a depistare i predatori.

Hi Juliet, thank you very much for your compliment. "Double" in fact I was able to photograph the caterpillars at the stage they are eating and in what they are about to make transformation. I wish you a pleasant sarata, hello Fabrizio
