Tent Caterpillars and Kinrockin’ caterpillars
These little fellows were twitching in their mass cocoon. The picture was taken in early summer. Can you identify them?

Hi Mike,
These are Tent Caterpillars, probably Eastern Tent Caterpillar, Malacosoma americanum. Here is a link with additional information.
