About Swallowtail caterpillars of the Papilionidae family are usually smooth-bodied and vary in colour from green or yellow-orange with black markings to a colour pattern that gives them the appearance of a bird dropping or the head of a snake with conspicuous "eyes." All swallowtail caterpillar species possess a scent gland called an osmeterium that is located just behind the head. When disturbed, this fleshy-looking, forked, orange-red gland is everted from its pouch and releases a disagreeable odour. Because the caterpillars are relatively large and very colourful, they too (with royal and silkworm caterpillars) are quite noticeable. Very few species would be considered important pests. Many adults from this family are colourful and beautiful medium-size to large butterflies. Their name is derived from the presence of tail-like projections on the hind wings.

What an excellent macro Daniel. Your skill in this field always amazes me. Such wonderful colours too. Looks as though he's giving the "V" sign.

Wow! Excellent macro! I would have cropped in a little tighter, I think...on the other hand, I like the DOF effect. Great job!
